Anyone can do Triathlon. Yes, even you!
Triathlon is said to be one of the fastest growing sports
in the UK and it is easy to see why. It is a sport
that challenges and motivates you to keep fit.
Although there is the temptation to want good kit, you
can participate on a very low budget. Losing is
mostly expected and still great fun! The challenge
is there for those that want to excel and there is the
joy of participation and satisfaction for those who
just love competing.
Most people can run and cycle fairly easily,
even if it is not fast. Swimming is the discipline
that puts most people off. However, swimming is
not as difficult as you might think if you are prepared
to start swimming regularly and even better, to take
some training. I have seen many triathletes swimming
with breaststroke and then jump on a mountain bike,
and good on them, we all start somewhere.
What next? Well it is always easier
to start by training with another triathlete and we
can put you in touch with your local OIC. We'd
love to see you at one of the races on our schedule
and if you'd like to join the RAFTA then complete an
application form
and Send it Off. General queries can be directed
to the RAFTA Sec.
