where to begin?

This is the perfect time to start thinking about doing a tri. You can get up to par on your training and then tri season will hit next Spring. Perfect!

Read the forum and check out www.beginnertriathlete.com for all the information you need.

It's a big overwhelming at first, but once you learn all the in's and out's it's fine.

Thanks for all the replies & encouragement! that Danskin tri looks promising! I think I can get a membership to a health club with a pool through my work; I will have to see if they offer any swim classes.

With winter on the way I may have to invest in a trainer - I will ride when it's cold, and I will ride when it's rainy, but I don't like riding when it's both at the same time. Guess I could do the stationary bike at the gym but I kind of prefer my "normal" bike and posture.

I'm sure I'll be asking for more advice later, so stay tuned....
