Hey guys, I wanted to give you a heads up on a Chicago Tri contest that Active.com is running. They've launched a special section that has articles on training and tips from the experts--but it also has info on how to sign up for your chance to win a free entry to the Chicago Tri. If you want...

I am competing in my first Olympic Tri in Sept. (I have competed in Sprint Tris before), and have no idea how to even begin to train for one! A little background: 1. I run 5k's and 10k's almost every weekend for fun 2. I do high intensity cardio classes at the gym with plyometric excersice...

I just completed my first triathlon in Naperville, IL. I had trained since January and thought I was ready and could complete the tri in the time it took me when I was practicing inside. Instead of the swim taking me 10 min it took me 15 because there were so many people stopped in the middle...

I am new to triathlons and am hoping someone with experience in tri gear for women with DD chest can give me some advice. I have bras that I wear for running and biking. But its harder to find supportive swimwear and also swimwear that can transition from the water to the bike and run. I...

about eight weeks ago, I decided I wanted to complete a triathlon before I turn 42 in August of 09. While this is a long way out, I am also pretty out of shape and knew I could not get it in before football camp opened. Once that happens, my weekends are mostly taken. So I set a date for next...

I have no idea what made me start researching Triathlon, but now I"m hooked. I can't stop thinking about it. I've never done Triathlon before and I only have some experience in running. I was in the military, so nothing long distance. I've never biked other than goofing around on a BMX bike...

i am registered for the NYC tri in July - I did a half-marathon last July, but suffered an accident when struck by a car in November. luckily all is well and no permanant damage etc., but was sidelined until a couple of weeks ago. haven't ever done distance biking or swimming before. is there...

Hey there, I was trying on some tri shorts and man did those feel weird. I tried the ones with the pad. Is that pad supposed to hang kind of low on your crotch or is it supposed to be right snug up there? And are they all supposed to be snug fitting in the crotch? plus I feel really...

Hey folks! My first official tri is the Over the Mountain tri in King's Mountain NC, 1500m, 45k, 10k. I've done the distance in practice ok, but coming out of the pool locker room to getting the bike out of the car is a lot different than the real deal. I'm a runner by nature so...

Hello everyone I am planning to run a duathlon in May and a Sprint Triathlon in September; not much of a biker or swimmer, but a decent runner with 17:58 5K/3:06 Marathon PR's. Any good advice on where to start? Thanks. Curtis

Hi, I have just started triathlon and have done 2 races. I am really enjoying it but I don't have a tri suit and I'm looking to get one The ones that I have found are not like a cycling short that has a chamois covering the front and leaves one's private part VERY exposed Is this...

Hello everyone, My name is Tom i am from chicago and am training for my first sprint triathlon in july. Just wanted to say hello and i am looking forward to all the great information on this site, and i hope to also provide as much insite as i can to this community. :smile:

So I'm a bit overweight. I come from a marathon cycling background, however I have recently re-located, and the bike is lagging behind, so I have picked up the two other Tri sports to pass the time. I'm signed up for Jack's Generic Tri in August (bike /should/ be here by then). I've also set...

Getting ready to head down to our area's 2nd sprint tri of this year. This race is in Boca Raton, FL and is a 1/4 mile swim / 10 mile bike / 3.1 mile run. Can't wait to test some new goggles and put the new bike to the test on a nice road course. Cheers to all...:pbj:

HI ALL, I'm a first time poster who has been gleaning lots of triathlon tips from this site for the last few weeks. Thanks to you all for sharing your experiences on line so a newbie like myself can hopefully avoid some pitfalls along the way to my first tri. I was an average...

I have an extra-large carbon Marin Stelvio Road bike that fits me perfectly. I would like to put some aero bars on it to use in tri and duathlons. Does anybody know of a website that discusses the correct "fit" of a tri bike and how to know if one is way off for you before it's yours and...

I finished my first tri this weekend. (YEAH!!!) It was kick a$$. Thanks for some feedback for a couple questions I posted here. The tri was 800m/24mile/6mile. Lot's of fun except I dropped my sports bottle on mile 1 of the bike and didn't drink anything until mile 1 of the run. This really messed...
