Hello from Maryland

Hello all,

I am 33 years old and in training for my first tri. I am planning on racing, The Gateway to the Mountains race in Thurmont Maryland in the end of August. It is a Fat Tire modified sprint.

I have been training for the last several weeks but still have some ground to make up over the next month. I found this site while looking for some training schedules and swimming tips. The running and biking is going well and I am still strugling with the swimming. I have signed up to volunteer at a local olympic tri this weekend so I can figure out what to expect in a few weeks.

The site has been helpful and already eased some of my concerns.

Eric
