Triathlon Training - Swim:Bike:Run Ratios

How much training time should one spend on swimming vs. biking vs. running? This is a very common thought that every beginner triathlete experiences when first entering the sport. For those just starting out, I discuss why one shouldn't initially think in terms of swim/bike/run training ratios. Instead, focus more on training to one's weaknesses and building up overall fitness, which will get you primed and ready for that first triathlon and more. I also outline 5 super simple, general training tips that should get anyone jump-started into triathlon training. Stop thinking so much - just get out there and DO IT!
