Subject: Newbie and looking for some training partners
Hello! My name is Matt and I am a student at Towson University. I am just getting into triathlons and so I am looking for a mentor/ training partner. I do not have a whole lot of experience and so a mentor would be great. I am a hard worker and once I put my mind to something, I will do it. Doing triathlons have always been my dream goal. I have always wanted to do one. Ever since I was a little kid I have always picked on due to being overweight. I want to change that. I want to live a healthy life and enjoy the life of being a triathlete. If anybody wants to help out, txt me 4107079668

While running, I've been really struggling to keep my heart rate down in the zone 2-3 range as frequently prescribed in the plan. This seems too slow?

I started riding this spring with the Carnac shoes on Look pedals (with plenty of float). About five minutes into a ride I get sharp pain on the outer edge of my feet, just behind the pedal.
