Hello From the Caribbean

Hi everyone.

A sort-of newbie here..... I'm saying sort-of because while I run (5Ks to half marathons) and swim (recreational in the sea) I've recently taken up biking (Feb 2019). I've done 2 try-a-tri events here in my country thus far (375m open water; 10K ride; 2.5K run) and I've decided that Triathlons are what I want to do with my life.

I don't have a road/ tri bike yet (I'm saving for 1 or the other), so I've been training/ competing on my MTB. There are no clubs/ groups close to where I live so I've mostly been doing my own thing training wise, and then I stumbled unto this website and forum. In my country, we don't have many triathlon events here, but I'm hoping I'll be ready for a "sprint" triathlon next year. My goal is to be a "middle of the packer-finisher".... not very lofty I admit, but since at the moment I'm dead last, I figure that's a good first goal

Thank you (in advance) for helping me on my journey to become a proper triathlete
