2 weeks and beyond

Yo dudes and dudettes

Obviously I'm new to this running game. But i'd like to share my experience so far and if anyone would like to add what i should expect in the coming weeks.

OK so I joined the gym after a 3.5 year recess because I wanted to get better at other things. I've been swimming for a while but the idea of triathlon has captivated me.

First visit was awkward, induction, 10 mins on the tread mill all i seem to be able to do was walk with a couple of mins light jog.

2 weeks later and in such a short time worked up to 20 mins constant jog covering just over 2.5km.

In the next few weeks i want to push it to a constant upto 5km along with 20km cycle and swim, for those triathletes you'll recognise this as a sprint distance.

I need as much advice as i can to build up. I'm not a light fella, but already have big bodily results (no pun intended) leg muscles changed, larger hamstrings and quads. what do i expect, and what addition things to chuck in my diet??

I eventually want to knock off a marathon on my bucket list.
