Subject: Hi from Albany, NY

I have been training for my FIRST Triathlon at the end of August. This is a whole new sport for me. I have been active all of my life - basketball, hockey, lacrosse. I had an injury last fall which required major surgery to my wrist (Ligament Reconstrution). Due to the injury I will not be able to participate in the sports I have been playing. A buddy of mine talked to me about a Sprint Triathlon. I use to swim in high school and I do run for exercise. I decided to sign up and get started on a new athletic path. I am very nervous/excited for my first tri and will be looking forward to doing more.

Welcome to BT and Triathlons! There are a few Tri groups in the Albany area I know of ( http://www.cdtriclub.org& http://www.saratogatriclub.com) in-case you're interested in joining a group? You'll probably enjoy the cross-training and hopefully the 1st race will hook you in for life

Enjoy!

Welcome! I'm from the capital region myself. Haven't lived there in 10 years, though, but the parents still do. Nice to see some triathletes! I need to do a race up there so my parents can come watch.

Hey there! I'm also a tri-newb and located in Glens Falls. I'm a member of the Adirondack Triathlon Club (www.adktri.org) and we're active in races all over the northeast. Good luck in your first race, mine will be the Fingerlakes Sprint in September!
