Member  8 |  Subject: finally home (newbie with a heart)I'm here!!! I have just overcome seven years of intense pesonal job/school development, during which I had to give up all of my hobbies except alcohol and smoking. But I made it. I have wanted to tri for years, and now I'm signed up for an olympic distance on June 27, 2004, in Ventura, and the Alcatraz Aquathlon in August. I know this may seem brash, but that's how I am! I have a well of energy inside me. My problem is, it's hard for me to motivate myself to run in the morning and evenings are now out of the question (my favorite time). I guess I'll have to run at lunch. I think I just answered my own question. Well, anyway, I'm just really happy about the future. Any tips on how should I design my workout plan? |

Welcome and you'll find lot's of advice and inspiration (and several good laughs) around here.
