This was an important fitness goal for me and I trained all summer .
Many people inspired me and I hope I can inspire you to work to achieve your goals!

@Kstrong the only reason I do these mini triathlons is so my marathon and real triathlon running friends won’t call me a p@@@y. It’s to placate the taunts. If I really trained I think I could do half a marathon. Maybe. Running a full one takes dedication and time I don’t have. I applaud you .

@AthrillatheHunt i started out doing 5ks, went on to do a 10k, then philly broad street run (10 miles) then 1/2 , a training run for preparing for a full marathon. I miss the running, but i like my knees and would need a replacement if i continued to run

Triathlon (or decathlon) competitions are much better than the Olympic individual discipline tournaments! I think the sports doping problem would be gone if people were given gold medals only if they won a decathlon! Consisting of very different disciplines.
Congratulations to you!! 🌷

I really enjoyed doing triathlon back in the early days but got away from it when equipment got specialized and expensive. Kudos to you and your inspiration! Job well done!

@SageWanderer a buddy spent like 3k on a bike with all the bells and whistles

@AthrillatheHunt My few were nothing fancy for sure. 10 speed bike with down tube shifters, Kmart running shoes and basically a good time. When guys started to show up with wet suits, aerodynamic bars and such to me it ruined the fun aspect.

@BridgeOvertroubledWaters Norway’s Kristian Blummenfelt triumphed today in St. George to become the first triathlete to hold both the Olympic and IRONMAN world titles at the same time!
What a man! 🤪
