Technically speaking, I wasn't yet training for anything here. But everything needs a starting point. At this point, I hadn't really asked important things to Charlotte, like 'what does FTP stand for?' --- I thought it was the same everywhere, but turns out cyclists don't file transfer.

So, I might or might not be training for a triathlon. I am 100% training for better fitness. A triathlon might be the excuse, but I am in too deep now, so let's see how far I can (f|t)ake it.

Some, uh, difficulties if the triathlon thing is to happen:

• I don't know how to open water swim. I guess I could survival swim if you throw me in a 2 meter pool, but all bets are off if you throw me in the middle of the ocean. Remember, swimming is a life skill but wearing lycra while swimming is a decision.

• I am a, somewhat, proud owner of an ebike. A folding ebike, no less. And not even a Brompton. I haven't really read the rules for a triathlon of any kind, but I am pretty sure a motor is a no go. I plan to do most of my cycling on a Wattbike Atom I have access to. Goes without saying that I also don't think I can do a triathlon on a Wattbike.

• I hate running! The furthest I've managed to run is exactly 13.1 miles (a half marathon). I've done it twice, allegedly in some of the happiest places on Earth, and let's just say it didn't bring joy any of the two times.

• My coach name is Charlotte. I consult with a dude named Claudio some of her decisions. They both resemble more a toaster than actual triathletes, so we'll see how that goes.

• Apparently, distance matters, so I guess we are initially training for a Sprint? But maybe since I am full of so many good ideas lately, an Olympic one?

I guess... one step at a time?
