Short answer: no.
Have you particpated in any mass start events like a charity run 5km or 10km. Triathlons are different distances, start with the beginner Tris. and work your way up to Sprint tris and then Olympic tris. Depending on your conditioning, all this requires is that you slowly increase the intensity and length of your current training sessions. Once you hit a more competitive level and you feel that your times are not where you want them to be, then a coach consultant may be an option.
