I started riding in earnest about 3 years ago and like others here am totally hooked. I never ran until this year and hadn't swum(?) since I was a kid. I turned 59 this year and did my first sprint tri last week. WOO-Hoo! I love the challenge and the fitness I have gained. I'm even looking forward to the big 6-0 because I'll be able to step into another age group, and maybe get a medal

Have fun training, take it easy as you go, and share your progress with us here.
