New user 3 |  Subject: New guy from IowaHi all, I'm about 8 weeks in and just found this site. Wow! Knowing this is all here feels like a total boost. I'm feel like I'm pretty heavy and the over goal is to get down to 200 (245 right now, down 10). I started by joining a Y masters swim program to loose weight and it developed from there. I love the swimming, have always enjoyed running, and am trying to get into the bike (getting past the saddle issues have been challenging but all part of it I guess). The plan is to run Buffulo Creak Sprint in May. Anyway, I look forward to reading and learning. |

Extreme Veteran 438 Surprise, AZ | Subject: RE: New guy from Iowa Welcome to BT Good luck on your sprint race, you will love it. Don't worry the saddle issues will go away with time, if not I recommend an Adamo seat. Go Ohio State |

| New user 3 | Subject: RE: New guy from Iowa Thanks for the encouragement. I was excited Tuesday, it was the first spin class that I didn't have saddle soreness after. Go Huskers! |

Veteran 168 | Subject: RE: New guy from Iowa Welcome to BT and to the world of Triathlon! It is always a great idea to acomplish a goal with another goal. In your case, run your first Sprint Tri and lose some pounds. Please becarefull with your legs on the running part. Swimming and Riding will be great for your pogram, since no impact will be received. Remember to visit the Programs area where you will find some plans, some are free and others need a memebership, that will help you in your goal. Swim, Ride, Run and have fun! Nelson |

Member 19 Cedar Rapids | Subject: RE: New guy from Iowa Wow! We have many people from Iowa on this site. Many from your area too! I just started as well, but your a tad ahead of me because I only started about 2 weeks ago. Welcome to the forums! They are very very helpful. |
