it! Totally hooked. Learning to swim is on my bucket list and my new BF got me in a pool about a month ago and I remembered how much I love being in the water.
So, along with my new found enthusiasm for health and fitness I figured, why not try some triathlon training.
Nothing to lose but a few dress sizes, Good introduction to the sport! This book served its purpose and is a quick read, It covers everything from equipment options to clothing to race preparation and training schedules, Even if you have very little exposure to fitness or exercising you can get a very unintimidating introduction to the world of multisport.
I was most curious about the transition areas and how that all works, and this book paints a decent picture of what goes on and how best to prepare.
Good basic info for a first time triathlete, overly simplified and general but i guess ok if you really have no idea what's involved in a triathlon, but i'm sure there are more helpful intro books.
Lots of useful information in a concise and easy to digest format, I'm using the suggestedweek training program for a sprinttriathlon as my guide, Will let you know after my event how the training program worked out for me,
Update: Now that I've doneof these sprint tris and I'm signed up formore this summer, I would say this book is a success.
It definitely helped me ramp up for my first tri season and i'm having a great time.
you definitely don't need to buy this book, I just checkec it out of the library and transcribed the training schedule into my calendar.
Every man an Iron Manand every woman, too!
