I know it's only been about a week since I put up posters at the stations, and although I have heard a few people express interest, no one has really committed to training for the Pacific Coast Triathlon (that I know of). This post is not to try to coerce you into doing something you don't want to do. But, if you are even remotely interested, I am hoping to talk you into giving it a try, at least the training part.
Here are the top ten reasons I think you SHOULD give it a TRI:
1. Cross training is an excellent way to get in shape fast.
2. Already in shape? It'll help prevent injury by conditioning different muscle groups. And, because you are using different muscle groups it will allow you to work harder more often so you can take your work outs to the next level.
3. Do something different. It'll help prevent burn out.
4. Bragging rights
5. Challenge = Motivation
6. Training with other people is fun (even if we don't physically train together).
7. It'll give you an excuse to spend time outside and in the water this summer.
8. Competition
9. Regular exercise increases energy, improves mood, clears you mind and helps you sleep. What more do you want?
10. Hey, I did it. So can you! Trust me. And it is completely worth it.
