Running in Memphis

It looks as if I am even newer to all of this than some of the other newbies. I have not even participated in my first race which is scheduled for September 18 in Arkansas. I've been doing a bit of research on my own, but decided to join a forum in order to have access to more information and athletes. I was excited to find this one. As I said, I am brand new to all of this, so I welcome any advice that can be provided.

Hi there,

Welcome to the forum! I haven't participated in my first race yet either (June 5th-aaaahhhh!) so you're not alone. Gotta start somewhere, right? Good luck with your training and your tri.

I am new to racing also and I am also in Memphis. I have not even bought a bike yet. Can anyone give me some advice on what type of bike to get. I want to start out with just a mountain bike. Is there a certain type of mtn bike I should look for? I have not owned a bike since I was like 12 so I really have no clue about what to get. Thanks
