Quote | Reply
hello to you all. Just thought I'd say hi and introduce myself. I'm a keen runner training for the first time for a triathlon, ultimate goal is NZironman 2021
Looking forward to getting to know you all and share ideas and some laughs
Hope you are having an awesome day

Hi Taranaki! Welcome. As you can see by my handle, I'm pretty darned new to this also. And, I'm a swimmer, definitely not a runner. I've found this forum to be very welcoming, and very supportive. There's a tri club in my area, but it's got a bunch of bro-y dudes so I've found a bit of a community here. Feel free to ask questions. I probably can't answer them, but others will. On Mondays, a post usually goes around to check in with everyone.

Formerly GiantNewb, but not such a newb anymore.

awesome, thank you! There is quite a lot of support around here but I'm really rude when I train and like to train alone where possible, lol so a group of cool chicks online to support and help is just what I need :O)

That's not rude! I'm fairly introverted (but occasionally not) and training time is me time so I get where you're coming from. Welcome to the Womens.

hahaha, I am a massive extrovert and talk way too much so running (and now other training) is my only out from people, I love my own headspace.
Thanks for the welcome!

You live in one of my most favorite places in the world. I've been there 5 times and have a bunch of great friends there. And IMNZ is one of the best races around.

Glad you're here.
