Any tips on training for a triathlon. I would like to start at the sprint distance?

I found a site that has training programs and training logs. beginnertriathlete.com/ This is a 13 week training program for a spint length triathlon. beginnertriathlete.com/cms/article-detail.

Asp? Articleid=261 The basic advice seems to be: 1) Train Early. You can't go from Couch potato to athlete in 4 weeks, give yourself plenty of run up time.2) Pace yourself.

Similar to the above if you try to do to much too soon you risk knee injury and strains. 3) Write it down, keep training logs to keep yourself on task and track your progress.4) Don't skimp on gear. Good sneakers can help you feel more comfortable and may help reduce the risks of injury.

Have fun and good luck with it.

The triathlon is a great sport, but it requires a tremendous amount of hard work and preparation. Here are some tips on training for the three parts of a triathlon: Swimming - Start with 20-minute sessions and increase to 60-minute sessions over a four-week period. Cycling - Practice riding on rolling hills to get used to cycling uphill.

Running - Train with uphill climbs, and gradually increase your times and distances by about 10% each week to avoid injury. Learn more about preparing for a triathlon at this web site: giddyup-triathlon-sports.com/triathlon-t....

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
