Just started to train for 1st tri sprint

Thanks for the words on encouragement, looks like 9-17-06 @Zuma Beach, Ca

Water is your friend. Biking, however, is not.

Good luck at Zuma Beach.  Swimming could be your friend someday.  I think most of us start off hating it, but after some breakthrough workouts and lots of gasping, it all clicks and you acutally 'might' look forward to it.   Now biking on the other hand....

Swimming is hard, but I found that I like it.  It feels great to have a workout done.  Nice cool water, running all over.  It was tough getting in it this AM, cold to get in, but great once I got going.  You will find a place and love it as well.

Good luck with your training, ditto what has already been said, I also hadn't swam in a long time, but once you start it comes. I am still not the best swimmer, however I enjoy the challange of working at getting better.

Thanks, still trying it's hard haven't been in the [ool in years!!!!!
It will come hopefully...........

Good for you!! Congrats! You can do it.. I'm with you on really liking it all but the swim. That's the part that just throws me! Argh... oh well.. stick with it! Have fun!
