commit. train. achieve.

I joined Tri-Now having zero experience with triathlon. Although I was a decent cyclist and runner, I only knew the basics of swimming and hadn’t swam more than a few yards at time in the last 30 years. I joined the Beginner Triathlon program, and with the help of Coach Linda, Coach Frank, and Coach Maddie successfully completed my first sprint triathlon! I loved it so much that I did the beginner program a second time, this time taking on a triathlon with an open water swim. Since joining, I’ve done multiple sprint triathlons, an Olympic distance, and am now training for a 70.3/half-Ironman distance. I would not have been able to complete these events with confidence had it not been for Tri-Now. The tips and tricks I’ve learned along the way — from how to set up a transition area to general swim technique to sighting buoys — have been invaluable. But more than that, the Tri-Now community is wonderful. It’s so empowering to attend group workouts with everyone from first timers to multiple Ironman finishers. There’s always someone to push you and offer advice.
