You don’t have to be an athlete
I read short this article (“Trust me, if I can do it, you can do it” , Post-Bulletin) and it was pretty good, but this was actually the most important point.
You don’t have to be an athlete to participate in triathlon. That’s the beauty of it. As long as your goal is to finish and have fun, everyone can give tri a try.
If you are beginner and starting to get overwhelmed with the task ahead, let it go. As long as you are giving it a real effort and training, you’ll probably do a lot better than you ever thought.
