New to Tri

Welcome to BT! For the last few years we've posted a list of Tri's in the area, scroll down in this Kansas forum and you'll see it. The KC Tri is usually a good event, well attended, look out for early bird pricing it got a little pricey this year for late registration. In July there's the Shawnee Mission Tri, a great event and challenging with the hills. If your company participates in the Kansas City Corporate Challenge there's that race in June, same exact course as the Shawnee Mission short course. Nice that about that is that it's "free" if your company participates in the KCCC.

In late summer the Cedar Creek Tri and Weatherby lake Tri's are nice low-key but very FUN sprint Triathlons.

Happy Training!

Hello....welcome !

I've used the training plans available on BT for several triathlons and they have worked well for me. The past few years I've used some different plans, but when I first got started, I followed some of these and believe in them.

They have some free plans and more options with the paid membership. Even though I use a different training plan, I now use the tools on this site to plan workouts and to keep a schedule. I've also used the custom training plan creator. It worked pretty well for me as my wife and I both train, and have 4 kids. So juggling both schedules can get pretty hairy and the BT tools help me keep on track.
