Any Original BT members out there?

I joined in 2006, so not quite "original" but long nonetheless   I still use the log to log everything I do, fitness-wise.  It's quite a data set at this point. 

Been logging here since 2005! Some of us are still around!

Joined in September 2005 after completing my first triathlon and lurking for almost 2 months.  

Sometime a while back, I could find my member ID which also correlated with joining BT, but can't find it any more.  

I joined early 2005 - used the Beginners IM plan for my first IM

Have continued to use the training log all this time

I had to look at my profile to check when I had first registered here... January 2006.

I like the spirit of this place...I don't use strava- it feels like too much of a competition to me.   I use training peaks for logging but may start to double log and hop back in     What's on your race calendar this year?   

Originally posted by Atlantia I used training programs from BT in 2004 to finish my first super sprint. Came back in 2005 to register, and been here off and on ever since. I definitely see more of my BT pals on Facebook and Instagram than anywhere else, but also check in here frequently since all my training is logged here. BT was pre-Strava! Ahhhh, the old days.

I am quite certain your "screen name" is familiar to me    I was pretty consistent on here for about 10 years then it got spotty.  It's good to see people still on here!  

Yay!  There is something about this site that calls me back   The good memories?  The positive atmosphere?  I dunno.   It's where I was when I started.   Thanks for chiming in! 

I totally remember your screen name, McFuzz...and I see you have your same profile picture.  I remember it b/c you are climbing. Always wanted to get into climbing and in the last year or so I have.  We have an amazing indoor gym a mile from here and I have been out to CO for some beginner outdoor climbs.  I think you can look in your profile for your registration date? I will have to check that to see when I joined!  Cheers. 

It's really amazing how it can make you feel..I have done some ultra running...but have found as I get older it is a bad idea!  My body doesn't tolerate the mega running.   I also did some endurance swimming, which was great...but there is really something about all 3 at once that leaves you feeling pretty spectacular.  I don't do strava, either.  Not my thing.  Good for you getting back to it!  

That's awesome!  I didn't use any of the BT plans but learned a lot from this site in my first years.   Are you training for an IM now?  

Just checked mine....October 2004    Like I said before, something about this site I like.  Like a warm blankie 

Hi

Yes - I'm training for IM Vichy this year ... cant wait

I bet! I am just going back to Florida 

Looks like we both started about the same time on here...I did actually get a plan or two from trinewbies! I never used BT plans...and after I jumped up to Ironman I hired a coach.   Is trinewbies still around, I wonder?? 

That is great! I feel like I get super lazy without a race   I wish I could just "exercise" but I am not sure I would have the same dedication without the race!  Even though I like the training better than racing for the most part.    Go figure 

Oh, now there are some memories. TTN's fixie riding on Powercranks? Or the ultimate blow-up of "Disappointed"? The throw-down between TNO and ST at... which tri was that?

Registered in 2008 and still logging consistently.  It's nice to go back and see how far I've come.  I've met a couple of people from the site over the years and consider one a good friend (latestarter).
