Greetings from ATL

Greetings back to you. There seem to be a few of us here now from the Atlanta area. Good luck with your training. Have you set your sights on any races yet?

welcome!  glad u found our little world.

I haven't decided on a race yet. I would like to find a swim coach to help out with technique. I should probably go ahead and sign up otherwise I may just keep putting it off. Any advice on a good race would be appreciated. Thanks!

There's one in August in Peachtree City that I am planning on participating in. Its far enough out to be able to build up to see http://www.tri-ptc.com/for info on the race if you're interested. or try the links at http://www.trifind.com/for other races.

Thanks! I'll definitely look into it.

Welcome to BT!  And good luck with your training!

Hot Lanta - Welcome!!

Greetings back to you from Marietta, Ga. I'm training for my first sprint as well. I did a little research and found that there's only one Tri club here in town. The Lymphoma and Lukemia society has something called "Team in Training" in which they organize group training events and also sponsor races. Its a way to train and participate while also helping out with a good cause. My sister participated in one of these events at Disney and really enjoyed it.

I've not joined a club, my schedule forces me to train "whenever I can". I hope all goes well for you. This is a great site, check out the training schedules and the training logs. They are great tools by which to get geared up and to track your progress. The forums are a fantastic way to get your questions answered.

Best of luck to you.

Welcome to the site and best of luck with your training!!
