Triathlon

So, it has been a few months since I even posted out here. I was thinking about starting a new blog dedicated to my recent triathlon training. After slight consideration and even creating a new blog, I decided that it would be too much to have two blogs. So, this blog will change a little. It is going to become a little more personal. Hope you don't mind.

Since December I have been on a weight loss campaign. I woke up one day and decided that I was too heavy and very unhealthy. Started working out and then in January started following 'The Abs Diet'. To date I have gone from a whopping 244lbs down to around 215 right now. I would really like to get to 190. In February I decided that maybe a Triathlon would be a cool thing to try. So I signed up for Gazelle sports 'Y not Tri' program and began swimming, biking and running. The swimming scared me the most and I can now swim confidently enough to finish my first Tri which is this coming Sunday (Xterra's Last Stand). Anyway, I am looking forward to this and hopefully a few more over the summer. I will post more information regarding my Triathlons experiences soon!

Dude... a triathlon?!? WOW! That is, and you are, amazing! Will you be doing the full or the shorter option? Good luck, man! (or should I say that I'll pray for ya!)

I am doing a short one. 500 meter swim, 10 mile trail ride (fort custer) and a 3 mile trail run (fort custer). Should be lots o fun!
