Subject: Hello! New to forum and novice triathlete Hello everyone. I am new to this forum and still relatively new to this sport. I am from the Chicagoland area.
I've done 7 Sprint Triathlon since last year and I am hooked for life. Swimming is my weakest event, but I continue to swim everyday to get stronger. I'm excited to be a part of this community to meet fellow athletes and get some tips and advice.
My first question to this group is about the Ironman 70.3. I think im ready to take this challenge on next year.
As a still novice triathlete, is there any Half Ironman races within the Illinois/Wisconsin/Indiana/Michigan region anyone would recommend me taking on first? Swimming is still the weaker of the 3 sports and i'd say running is my strongest event.
Any advice and feedback would be appreciated. Looking forward meeting everyone!
Regards
