Hi Melissa,
I loved your post on triathlons! I am a beginner runner, avid swimmer and casual biker. I just started running races last year and am training for the Denver Marathon in October. You are SO right that you don't have to be an uber-athlete to finish (and enjoy) doing triathlons or other races. I run VERY slow. I find when I focus on the goal of having a good time rather than trying to beat a time, I enjoy it so much more. Not many triathlons out here in Boulder but I'm looking for my first one to do. Keep up the great work on your blog!
