If you’re interested in Triathlon, then you've come to the right place because it's definitely more enjoyable to train with a group than on your own.  If you haven't yet joined our newsgroup, it’s a great way to learn about our interests and involvement.   

Each week there will be several e-mails that discuss upcoming training opportunities, which would give you a chance to get acquainted some of the others. If you'd like to introduce yourself to the group, just send an e-mail to tricredibles@googlegroups.com and tell us a little about yourself. 

Check our training schedule and just show up if you want to meet us.  Although we train often and hard, most of us don't take things so seriously that we can't enjoy ourselves.  We are associated with the University, hospital &/or med school, as well as other local industries.  Some of us hate to run and others are doing several marathons this year. 

We expect Tricredibles to be serious about training and participating in Triathlons & other endurance events, with at least a season of competition under their belts and plans to be active in the next year.  There are a lot of triathlons in the area that you could consider, just to see if Triathlon is your cup of tea.  You'll definitely need to get some time in the pool before your first open water swim.

In addition to Lake Kristi (fantastic venue) there are several other events that you can make into a day trip and be back by mid-day (Washington, Goldsboro, etc). See the "Event Schedule" on the website Calendar for an idea of opportunities within a few hours of here. There are several sprint races, duathlon, etc that will get you going and will also let you decide how serious you are about getting into the sport....investing in a bike, time to train, wetsuit?, etc.  Follow the links to Setup Inc and the other race management services on the Events page. 

Please feel free to contact me directly if you have problems getting into the newsgroup or want to ask about other issues.
