Hello everyone! I've been lurking for quite some time now, and finally decided to jump on the forums.

I just took up triathlon this past year, completing a sprint in April, a sprint with a much better time in July, and am doing another one in October.

In anticipation of wanting to start 2014 with olympic races and ultimately a 70.3; I've recently signed up for my first half-marathon this November a day after my 30th birthday. ( I swear its not a 30s crisis!)

Looking forward to all the information and support to be had here on the BT forums!

Welcome to BT, wife and I just got started too. We are from Tallahassee, just up the road. We will be volunteering at IMFL this year, be sure to go out and watch and cheer them on....

This forum is full of info, soak it up.

Welcome to BT, I have learned a lot here! I'm in Alabama not too far from you. I did my first tri in June in Fairhope.

What tri are you doing in October? I am doing the Santa Rosa Island Triathlon 10/5.

Welcome!

There are a couple sprints in Destin in October if you're interested. I'm also over in AL but usually go to Destin once a month.

I'll also be at the Santa Rosa Island sprint.

Welcome to the site and congrats on your first year of TRI - ing!

You have some great races down there. I use to live in Destin; hopefully planning a winter training camp to come back down and get away from the snow up here!

Cool!!!! Hubby (KWDreamun) and I will be helping with that race this year because it was our first tri last year. PM us right before the race so we can exchange info and meet you. You may already know this but the water is very dark (from the tannins) and usually very shallow. Some people walked most or all of the swim portion - it's that shallow. Are you going back home right after the race? I may actually be following you back because I think that I'll do Blue Mountain Beach HM the next day so I'll prob go to in-laws PCB condo.

Already a cyclist and not a bad swimmer, I figured all I had to do was build up to running a few miles and I’d be ready to go. The challenge invigorated me, and I ran out to buy new running shoes.

My thinking was that with three events, I could vary my training enough so it wouldn't grow stale prior to seeing positive results and finding the additional motivation I needed to continue training.
