So the TT/Tri rig is finally here... Now I just have to tune the engine up a bit. :)

You've never seen me run or swim...

Today's run -- 7 miles, 1:16:33. :o

Give it some time and effort. I'll bet that you will improve quickly.

Yeah, I'll be training my weaknesses over the winter. Sucks to head off to the pool with the beautiful new bike in the garage, but the bike leg isn't what I'm worried about...

Funny. Running's definitely my strong suit, closely followed by biking. I started my swim training today, and realized that I have awful upper body strength and could barely do 3x100 meters.

I feel you all. I can run and bike all day long, but i swim like a rock.

Next Tri is this Sunday, then I have my last one for the season in 2 weeks.

I suck so bad at swimming that I'm saving my first Tri for next spring....

I'll be getting my official start at multi-sport events with a duathlon instead. I figure I should be a bit more comfortable in the pool before I take to the ocean. :eek:

Good luck to all of you, no matter what you suck at. :D
