I just found this site today while researching bike frames, but am participating in my first tri in April. I bike regularly during the summers, approximately 1200 miles over 4 - 5 months. I have done two organized century rides. I also run some, and recently ran 2 organized 10Ks (9/26/09 - 67 minutes and 10/31/2009 - 63 minutes) and a 10 mile run (11/26/2009 - 1 hour 40 minutes). I have never swam competitively, and don't even know proper breathing, but thought it would be fun to combine biking and running and challenge myself with something new. I am reading "Total Immersion" to help me learn proper swimming. I will not be able to train in the water until early Feb. I am already looking for an Olympic distance in the summer to follow-up with.
Ben, I will be checking out your blog, as I was considering the Boulder half Ironman in Aug.
Thanks for the tips on the training resources!
