Hello,
I'm kind of new here and I need some help. I am trying to train for a triathlon in September. I'm not sure were to start with swimming. I use to swim competively when I was younger but have pretty much forgotten everything. Can someone tell me where to start? I also just had knee surgery so I am looking for something that is just going to help me build up some endurance.
Thanks in advance!

You have some good advise already. Just a few more things, it is already in the middle of triathlon season. What distance are you doing and is it off road or on? You need to get some base yardage in whether or not you have a coach. You can do this by swimming sets of nothing less than 100 and rests between 5 and 45 seconds. Do not worry about turns or starts yet, tri's are straight and long.
Please let me know your progress. Good Luck and have fun.
