Anyone with basic level of fitness and who is willing to do a few specific training sessions can realistically expect to complete an enticer or even sprint distance event.
Firstly have you ever swum, ridden a bike or run? For most of us the answer is YES (even if it has been a few years ;-)) or if you haven’t, do you enjoy challenging yourself and trying to achieve something new? (see below for basic training program)
For most novices the shorter distances are achievable and a great way to practice triathlon specific skills including open water swimming , swim to bike transition and bike to run transitions. If you start at least one session per week in each discipline (swim, bike and run) it should only take you 6-10 weeks till you are ready to complete an enticer event.

Hopefully!! Triathlon is a great sport to make part of a healthy lifestyle and meet like minded individuals. Triathlon can be as big a part of your life as you want. It can give you fitness, travel to new locations meet new friends and help you achieve personal goals.
Joining a club is a great start. You will be able to participate in organised club training and social events. By meeting other club members you will have access to many years of accumulated knowledge for all levels of triathlon.
