You should enter.. Dont worry about the swimming to much your only in the water for maybe 8mins. bikeing and running is what your will be doing the most of.

HI team!!!! Saturaday ran a 10k Sunday biked 20 miles. TOday nothing yet. I wanna play in the pool with Luluc

lol. glad your doing ok Kat. 60f is COLD. Biggest prob i had was getting my face in the Water without swallowng it all.

I too like Cereadad became a runner. Di my first 5k in april. And last week i just finished my forst Triathlon. There is nothing like it. I still have 100lbs to go but i can run 10k's. I normally do 2 or 3 5k's a week and 1 10k a week. I swim and bike too. CeraDad and i have a lot in common on that front.he has got about 20 pounds down on me though. but im after him! LOL.

hi team! 20 min run today (2miles) and 45 min spin class. Looking foward to to pedal biking outside tomorrow..im off work and going to the WI Dells for the weekend. DOnt panic i already checked it out and the have nature trails

OH gosh...GOOD LUCK!!!! Hope all goes well. Back to training the day after?????????? What the heck?? I think you will have to just walk a little the first week then the second week you will feel much better. I would think the 3rd week youd be ready for reg exercise. LEt me know how it goes. I am away for the weekend but i will be thinking of you Friday!!!!!!

Thanks guys!!! I just signed up for a Duathlon on September. I am going to do some more tri's before that but this is one i wanted in stone. a 2mile run..22 mile ride and 2 mile run again. A little diffferent. Oh heres a picture.

KAt...thats really an intersting lil story. Thats people think about me too. YOU do Triathlons? YES I do. I even posted my time up in the office message board in the lunch room to show other ppl you dont have to be super skinny.

Thanks Luluc!! I think your fantastic too. I always watch your progress...Keep hard at it lady!! (thanks for calling me a Stud too) LOL

Ok i wanted to let you guys know as youve been with me from the start i finished my first ever Triathlon on Sunday!!! 400yard swim (Outdoors COLD) then a 15mile bike ride and a 5k run. IT was amazing feeling.

I did it!!!!!!!!!!!! I finisnhed my first ever Tri. It was the sprint. so it was a 400 yard swim, 15mile bike and a 5k run. I ran the whole way..no walking. It was amazing! I was worried my 5year old $500 mountain bike wouldnt keep up with all the $3000 road bikes. But i overtook so many of them. Its not about the bike! UT LB Loser: Keep training!!!!! It is just such an amazing thing to do.

I starte going to the gym in Aug 07 at 440lbs. I hated it . But honestly...moost ppl are too busy with themselves to worry about you. KEEP going. No matter what. I just finished my first ever Triathlon on Sunday because of going to the gym.

wow good advice there . I like it. Maybe i should try it. Good luck Tonight Frani!!!! Big News i wanted to share with you guys as you have been with me since the start. On Sunday i offically became a Triathlete!!!! MY first ever. I completed the Green Bay Triathlon. What an amazing feeling.

I am now a Triathlete! Yaaaah for me.

Thanks LuLu and Frani for the encouragement! Im still at it trainning hard. Its weigh in day tomorrow. Gosh my shoulders itch! Me got thunder up here today but its meant to be clear on Sunday for me.

Ok i got the Green Bay Triathlon on Sunday. Been training hard. Yesterday i Naired my shoulders and back a little (not that they were that hairy)...wow what an experiance that was! Man i am ITCHY!

Thanks ladies! I will let you know how it goes. I practiced in the pool this morning in my wetsuit stuff and swim shoes to get used to it. I am glad i did because it was a little different. The temps are meant to be 70F on Sunday in Green Bay with no rain. I am SURE the swim is going to be COLD but once i get past that ill be home free. Made me laugh about filling up a kiddie pool with sweat! lol Thats a good goal Grey Hounder. Next year i want to do an Olympic length Triathlon. Then maybe in a few years an IronMan! I think my wife is going to volunteer for the race now so i should have a few pictures but NOOOO way are there going to be any in my wetsuit!

!!! Go Frani , Go Frani!!! YOur doing great....You keep rocking lady!!! I just naired my shoulders and back for my tri!!! Now that was an experiance!!!!!!!!!
