Hello! tri Newb here

Hey everyone. I'm so glad that I found this site. A little about me, 31 years old. Live in Utah. I've been in law enforcement four the past 9 years. I've been an athlete for most out my life. I'm always looking for ways To challenge myself. I've ran several road races and a few obstacle races. 13+ miles. I've had a blast training for and completing these, however I've always had a desire to get into triathlons but didn' know where to start. I have a personality that when I get interested in something I put 100% off my spare time and effort into it. it can be a blessing or a curse. Anyways I started to seriously look into triathlons a few weeks ago. I'm hoping that this site can point me in the right direction and that I can start off on the right foot. I don't have a bike yet but have a goal of completing several tris and working my way up to an iron man 70.3 then maybe a full Iron man by this time next year. I hope this isn't a too far fetched of a goal. I'm committed and extremely dedicated. I look forward to the learning from and listening to the advice of everyone on here.
Thanks,
Brandon
