I'm looking to do my first triathlon next spring. I was a competitive swimmer all through grade school, high school, and college, I've done a few open water swims of up to 10k, and I currently run a 42 minute 10k and have run 6 marathons. So I'm not fussing about the first and last legs.

I am trying to find some general info and am having no luck.
My question is three-fold:
1) While I dont know my "official" RHR or MHR, they are likely 'round 60-65 and 180-190, respectively. What concerns me is that just putting on my shoes rockets my HR into the 90s and walking sends my HR...

I recently did a 10k on a twisty turn-y course (IBM Uptown Classic: 10K Course Map and Directions) and after the race I had two of my friends (with whom I did not run during the race) tell me that this certified course was long. One said that her GPS indicated it was 6.39 miles, the other had a...

Did a 12 mile run on Sunday, and my right-side inner thigh started chafing and bleeding after mile-9. Really weird, never had this happen before. I have the WF race coming up in 10 days, any suggestions for how to dress this up so that I can finish the race?
Well, I have to say that I'm getting not so scared of the marathon portion of the IM. I just did an 18 mile run in 2:52. I was shooting for 3 hours, and blew it away. The longest run I had done before this was 16 and I kind of hit a wall at mile 14.5, but then regained my composure. On this...

I have been asked many times about which is better: treadmill running or running outside. "Am I getting the same workout?" "Will I be able to race if I have only run on a treadmill before?" Worry no longer, my...
