Looking for a mentor
BY: hockeychic on 2017-01-19 1:53 PM
Hi there,
I am new here and never done a triathlon
I don't know which group to try and join. I am almost 51 over weight and out of shape but I do walk a lot, and swim once or twice a week
I signed up for the Grimsby Women's Tri and I have no idea what I am doing other then I am willing to work hard, lose the weight and finish with some pretty bling around my neck,
Can anyone help me or advise what mentoring group might be best for me
Thank you
Kim

Hi-
I am not familiar with the mentor groups here. What are you doing for a workout plan?

A new group just opened up in the 2017 Mentor Forum...
(http://www.beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=545285&posts=1&page=1
)
It's called "Be the Ball" and sounds like a good fit based on age and experience.
