I bought a copy of 220 Triathlon magazine last weekend and it had a really useful CD-Rom on it which outlined the basics of triathlon and stuff. I thought - what a good idea. I've just bought a bike - OK, it's a softy commuter type bike but what the hell. I've been running for about 6 months or so. What's stopping me from entering a novice event? Well, swimming. I haven't been swimming in ages so I thought I'd investigate our local pool and go for a splash today, until I found out how much it cost.
Nearly £4. I can't afford that, not regularly anyway. At least once you've got running shoes and a bike you haven't got to pay every time you go out....
Any ideas on how I can get swimming training without having to pay through the nose for it??

or join a tri club and see if they have subsidised pool sessions
I might look into a local tri club, but I'll get better on the bike first - see if I *really* want to give it a go...

I find cycling on the roads quite nerve wracking. I get really tense when the cars go past. I think I need loads more practice...
