Subject: How did this happen ? So I have got out of condition in the last few years - there are good reasons - and I join a local beginners running group, 2 weeks in and I'm gtting the bug. SO I start looking at 10K and 5K races in next years calendar and out of nowhere a tri event comes up. I think to myself 'never run before this but I used to love cycling and swimming, why not try this ?' Look closer and see the super sprints are probably do able so I join a local tri club.
So at 57 with a body past its best and carrying extra weight I begin my tri training Thursday with a swim session , after the running group. I have a beginners aquathon locally pencilled in for November and am looking at a duathlon in April and a Tri in August. My browser history is full of sites selling tri suits and tri suit reviews . How did this all happen so quick ? How can I possibly think this is a good idea ? Will I ever have a free evening again ?
