Subject: newbie advice I've tried triathlon training before...by my work life caught up to me and I just got too busy for three sports. I did somehow manage to put in the right amount of running training to run two marathons in 2007 and two half marathons (so far ) in 2008.
I have now decided to really start training for my first tri. But... I am very concerned about choosing a first-timer friendly race. I'd like to start now and train through the summer for a July/August race (preferably a sprint ), as I'm also going to be mixing in training for the Marine Corps Marathon in October.
Does anyone have any good advice for a Tampa-area race in that time frame??
Thanks,
