Hi Jennifer,
Thank you for contacting TriathaNewbie.com!

Read through the Swim, Bike and Run pages of our website to educate yourself on mini-triathlons. Check out these books below to find a training schedule that works for you.

We're guessing that you won't be ready until next year and those races don't start posting until January 2011. We would suggest calling your local YMCA, Community Center or Gym to get recommendations on triathlon training groups. That w ould be your best bet!

Be well,
Megan
