Way to go HappyAnika ! ! ! What an amazing accomplishment - not slow in my books

I read that you want to do a Tri in June. Whoo hoo!

I have been toying w/ the idea of doing one the beginning of July.
But like you (how you used to be anyway) I HATE to run - it hurts.
I swim well and can bike distance but they are none too fast either.

I need a new goal (this years was a week long bike tour and century, met both of them.) so a tri seems the next logical progression

Any hints and help is more than welcome on how to train, doing 3 sports is more daunting than 1 or 2

Keep in touch on your progress and let me know how you are going about it. I am just getting serious about doing it
