Newbie Triathlete

Hello all! Just started reading here, so I figured I'd introduce myself quick so I can't even be considered a lurker

All through my youth, I played football and ran short distance track, so these endurance events are still pretty new to me. I started out a few years after college with running marathons (3:45 at Columbus 2008 and 3:52 at Cleveland 2009). However, after seeing many of my other friends training for and competing in triathlons, I knew that's where I would feel more comfortable.

Anyway, I'm a new triathlete in Ohio, doing my first summer of racing. I've been doing multi-sport training for the past 2 years, but finally got the courage to do some races this summer. So far, I've finished a sprint (1:18) and olympic (2:45) with plans to do another olympic and then a 70.3 distance in September.

That's all about me for now!
