training for my first triathlon in june 2007.

I have been running at events 10k and half marathons now for 6 years and have in 2010 completed my first marathon. Completed my first sprint distance triathlon in 2011 Training at the moment for a 70

I also train in martial arts. My running and triathlon training, however, is always a bit on and off. I'm keen to train more consistently and competing more will hopefully motivate me more.

I am a lapsed runner after training hard and completing the London marathon in 1996. I am trying to get back into things and presently training for the great north run. I am considering training

very competitive. I have set myself a challenge of taking part in triathlon next year so need to train hard and overcome my dislike of running!!

Just starting out in Triathlon. Working in the Middle East but originally from South Yorkshire. Trying to fit training in around a busy work schedule and so far loving it!

I run for Cambridge Harriers and I'm embarking on my first season of sprint triathlons after doing a winter of longer runs and cross countries as part of my training.

Enjoy casual running and occasional racing but not disciplined enough to self train! Social life and work are destroying my athletic ability! Tempted to enter the world of triathlon.

I am struggling back into running and triathlon after spending 6 months travelling in India and New Zealand. I currently work in an animal sanctuary which limits the time available to me to train.

I am doing a novice triathlon in may and am very nervous! hoping to get some tips on training and racing without looking like a complete idiot!
