I hate lurking on forums .... Just been reading lots of great info. I'm relativly new to Tri. I completed a sprint tri a while ago. So now I want to improve a bit.
I am no stranger to training Ex military so can put the effort in. I want to keep myself fit due to a medical condition. The fitter I keep myself the less stress my body gets which seems quite strange to some.
I have no problem swimming breast stroke but really struggle with crawl so will work on that.
Cycle Got myself a reasonable starter bike Giant Rapide 3. Had the bike set up by a friend. Just getting the distance in regular.
Running ahh can plod for miles boots and packs have seen to that lol. So will work on speed.
I have a good set of weights and a cross trainer in my attic so will build up strength and core. My goal is to do the Stratford/Warwick Sprint events this year. I train on my own mostly, but will start back at my local parkrun Leamington Spa. I have had some time out from training through injury that has now cleared up.
Whew a bit of a long one

Good luck with your training and have a good season.
All the best with your sprint event! It's all good fun! Enjoy!

The test to see how fast and hard you've gone is how much you dry heave at the finish.
Enjoy
