Just signed up for the London Triathlon next July (28th), pretty unfit so am going to concentrate on some running for now to up my cardio fitness as i figure this will benefit both my swimming and riding.
I have seen the beginner to marathon type training programmes on runners world but any good ones out there for triathlons?
Also memberships and clubs, have looked at some sprint tri's next may but some mention BFT membership for discount is there a benefit to having that if i intend on doing a few triathalons next year? If so better to go direct to BFT or via a club as I think it would help a club get some funding. Only problem is trying to fit in with a club's schedule, at could be difficult at the moment (Commuting = training)
So where to start?
