Member 19 |  Subject: 2nd Yr Newbie - 1st day Newbie to BTHey - I'm a 42 yr old female from Bloomington, IN. Last year I bought myself a trainer for my 41 birthday to do a sprint triathlon. Loved it and am now trying to do it again with the help of the BT community. I did 3 sprint races last year and am hoping to do 2 sprints at least 1 olympic. Any advice on going up in distance without hurting myself would be greatly appreciated (as would moral support - I already miss my trainer). |

 On your right | Subject: RE: 2nd Yr Newbie - 1st day Newbie to BT Welcome to BT! I'm a total beginner so I haven't got any advice other than listen to the people here. They are all so helpful and knowledgable. Well, I think there are Olympic distance training plans on here, you could always just use that. Good luck! |

Extreme Veteran 3177 | Subject: RE: 2nd Yr Newbie - 1st day Newbie to BT welcome to the BT club! looking at your logs you appear to have things together already. If you look at the training plans for Olympics you could probably find one that would suit your schedule and current fitness level, or at least be modified to fit it. One thing about the logs...once you start it gets addicting to log it all and see how far you have come and where you goal is taking you. |

| Member 19 | Subject: RE: 2nd Yr Newbie - 1st day Newbie to BT Thanks for the comments nd support. Based on feedback from one of the trainers I'm starting with a Sprint plan for my June race and then doing the "Sprint bridge to Olympic" plan for my Aug Oly. Wish me determination! |
