First for the year closing

On another triathlon forum I saw this topic and thought it might be good here.

So what have you done this year which counts as a first?


For me


First 70.3 (ironman UK)
First open water swim
First sportive (100 K)
First Team relays (ans captain at that)


So what are yours?

  • Not been able to get up to much this year as work has had me over a barrel with a caravan on my back for months on end. That said I managed my first 3.8km open water swim at Coniston stage of the Epic Swim Series and pretty much hit my target time bang on.

    For anyone who lives oop North I'd definitely recommend the epic swim races. They're perfect training for the OW tris we all love. The site is www.epicevents.org

    I was especially chuffed with that because I've never swum(?) that far before.

    First (and possibly last!) 70.3. HIMUK is tough!

    My first for 2012 is to cycle the entire route of the Tour de France in the same number of days as the pros - 2175miles in 20 riding days. How's that for a sportive

    Cheers jon.E and Blinkybaz.

    Each and everyone of us have all started out in Triathlon as a complete novice so everyone of our "First's" whateverr that may be is a tribute to a milestone on our Triathlon journey.
