Compression can help a lot (sleeves) and you can try KT tape if you know how to use it. I tore my quad last year before my triathlon and was off it completely for 4 weeks. No running or cycling and swimming only with a pull buoy.

I'm a great pool swimmer, and terrible OWS swimmer. Finally after 4 70.3s I had a close to good swim this summer. But I also put myself far away from everyone and basically swam in clean water. Personally, unless you are a DNF risk, it's not a huge deal to shave 3 minutes off your swim so maybe until you are more…

I signed up straight away for a 70.3 (hawaii, non wetsuit swim) and felt great about it! I did two olympics beforehand to practice transitions, make mistakes, and it worked for me (desert tri and wildflower oly). I literally could not clip into a bike before I started.

I'm going to add a couple to this. My long term goal is 130-135 ish. My goal is to stick my triathlon coach's mid-week plan, which means doing ALL my swims and ALL my strength training sessions. I'm also trying to become a stronger cyclist so I plan to bike 3 times a week

I'm Liz and my weight loss journey has been a struggle. I started running a few years ago, triathlon recently, and though I'm not eating McDonald's on the reg now, I am not seeing the scale dip more than 10 lbs and then I get discouraged put it all back on! I am in my friend's wedding in 2016 so would like to look more in…

I'm going to be Oceanside 70.3 and Louisville with possibly Coeur D'Alene 70.3 in between. Unsure what else...

Personally, if you want to run than run. Investing in real running shoes will help and starting with a walking/running interval plan will help. If I waited to start running until I got a "runner's body" I would never have signed up for my first 5k, 10k or half marathon. My third half is next week. Ready to tackle even more…
