Awesome that you are doing a triathalon. I've been thinking about that as well. I agree about the long distances too quickly thing. Of the 4 people I know who were training for the marathon, all of us are out due to various ailments. I think I'll start training again in a couple months and work up much, much more slowly. Thanks.

Its just too much pounding and the body can't adapt fast enough." they recommend starting with strength training if its been more then 2 years since you've done the kind of activity you'll be training for, ie long distance running. 13 miles is alot to start off with that quickly if you haven't been running alot regularly... heart l hey dre,
