Subject: RE: college student looking to get into triathlonsWelcome to BT and to the world of triathlon. If you are at a larger school/university, there might be a triathlon club already organized that will also help you train and give you local feedback to your training. I know that my big-10 alma mater has a club team (that they didn't have when I was there ). My background is swimming as well, making the cycling my "achilles heel" to date. The triathlons I did last year were all with my mountain bike (I've since upgraded to a road bike ). As far as the training goes, if you wait, you're only holding off your improvements. you can wait, but my question is "Why?" Rob |
