Being a beginner cyclist didn't stop FitSugar reader bjeanne18 from participating in a 15k bike race! She shares what it was like to shop for a bike and prep for her big race day in our FitSugar Community. The 15K bike race was part of the Corporate Challenge.

These dewy, cool mornings that turn into warm, sunny afternoons bring back fond memories of when I competed in track and field meets back in elementary school. The local horse track became my practice running grounds, and an old mattress was used as a high jump mat — I treated it like the Summer Olympics — it was kind of a big deal.

OnSugar blogger The Hotlegs Runner recently shared her lifelong journey that started in the kiddie pool to competing in aquathlons today. I went for a swim today as part of my cross-training and to catch the last few days (or weeks) of the warm weather. I like swimming laps because it's just like running. It helps clear my head and I get to think about a lot of things. I love the silence of Read more

Nothing makes my inner cougar happier than passing younger men while competing in triathlons (yes, they write your age on your calf for the whole world to see), but I like racing with just the ladies, too. The all-women races I've been in had a calm, somewhat sisterly vibe to them — and better cut t-shirts, too. If you're looking to try a tri, and want to stick with your own, here are three Read more
