Triathlon is the sport in which you swim, bike and run at the same time (well, not really at the same time, but you do it in a row).
This page contains some information about me and my training and competing, links to other triathlon sites and some pictures of me and my friends, taken at races and our training camp in Mallorca earlier this year.
I'm training and competing with SPIF traithlon club in Stockholm, Sweden. SPIF triathlon is the biggest triathlon club in Sweden. We have far more members than all other clubs in Sweden. Every summer we arrange two triathlon races. The main race is Stockholmstriaden, in which most of the swedish triathlon elite competitors participate. The other race is Tjejtriaden (a triathlon race in which only women are alloud to participate in). You can read more about those competitions on our SPIF triathlon site.
I've been training triathlon for nearly two years. My first competition season was quite good for a rookie like me. I competed in six races and I've got more and more experience after every race, but still there are lots of things to learn.
This yaer's season, I haven't been racing as much as I did last year, but the few races I have participated in, I did quite well results (exept from Stockholmstriaden). I reduced my time on a short sprint distance with over ten minutes! Another great step for me and my triathlon career was when I participated in an olympic distance race for the first time. This year has also been good for my ranking points. I have been in the top 100 on the swedish ranking list.
All serious triathletes need extra energy, and the best way (if not the best, it's surely the cheapest way) to get it is to eat the Torebar.
