      Nothing too drastic though. Sprint distance for novices.

      400m Pool Swim, 20k cycle, 5k run.

              And going straight from the bike to the tread mill in the gym is killing my legs, although it's getting better as I train more.

                good on you Dave, I've always fanced doing a Tri. but my girlfriends ex used to do the IronMan for fun, which kinda make me feel sillily to do the shorter versions. My running times are not so good, i.e 25 mins for 5k !!! but my bike times are ok. Not done any swimming for a long time though.

                    Nothing fancy, but it beats using my MTB with road tyres on it.
