Hi everyone! I'm 19-years-old, and I have really been looking into participating in a triathalon for quite a while. In vain, I have been trying to train without a set plan, and now I am ready to really get serious and keep myself motivated and on track. I just figured I'd let everyone know who I am and say hello! Good luck to you all!

Hey youngin'

Welcome.  This is a great place to talk about training and staying fit.  Post early.  Post often.

And based on your email address, might you be a student at a school with a fair to middlin' basketball team?

Oh to be 19 again, chasing girls, hanging out at the burger joint, chasing girls, staying out until 4 AM, chasing girls, layin' on the beach, chasing girls. If I did that at my age, I'm not sure I'd know what to do when I caught one. Anyway, welcome to the group Gina! We've got a wide variety of ages here and it's great to listen to the ideas, dreams, and goals of all ages. Ask lotsa questions and keep us updated on your progress!

Welcome Gina! I was doing the same training-without-a-plan thing for a while too. Now that I found the training plans on this site though, the whole thing feels more real! Good luck with your training!

Welcome Gina!!

Give it time and you'll be knee deep in triathlon books, training programs, etc!! First step in the plan, choose the race!!

Ah to be young in body and not just in mind and spirit!!

Welcome aboard Gina. We have two things in common, our love of triathlons and the fact that I was 19 once myself (way back in the 60's) ;-)

Thanks for all the replies! Yeah, our basketball team is doing pretty darn good this year...everyone is all hyped up and crazy about it here at OSU. I'm really excited about getting focused and having a set training plan. The not-having-a-plan idea didn't work so well. Welp, I'm looking at the Ozark Valley Triathalon on June 27. I'd really like to do it, and I think that will be what I aim for. I'm so stinkin pumped! (I was showing my Okie-slang there....hehe)

Welcome Gina -- you'll like it here -- it's a great place to hang out, and hang out, and hang out, and -- well you get the picture.

Good luck with your season.
