Member  36 |  Subject: New to BT, not new to tri'sHey y'all! My name is Brian and I live down in Lakeland, FL. I know a few people on here, and I figured it was time I should get involved. I have been doing tri's for just over a year now, but I have been running for 5 years, when I decided to lose weight. Used to be 280, but now Im 194 (as of this morning). I am a veteran of 5 marathons, 7 halves, an HIM, and various smaller distance races. I ride a 2007 Trek 5000 and I decked it out in Orange and Blue! Go Gators! I have frequented other forums in the past: coolrunning, kickrunners, lurked at slowtwitch. Hell I even met my wife on one of them! So I think that's me in a nutshell. Any questions? |

AmericanIdiot aka 70.3 over at chrunners..we've never met but I was at Timberman last year..hung with PJ and Dave for a bit. Welcome to BTland!! Its funny that your intro was at the top of the list when I was on the main forum page, otherwise I probably never would have seen it! WHen I saw the name snooze..I mean really how many people out there use that. Edited by trirific10 2009-03-21 6:04 PM |

Member 36 | Subject: RE: New to BT, not new to tri's Ah yes! How goes it? Do you spend more time in here over the other forums these days? I have kinda come here for info but never hit the forums. I have a few friends in town in here, so I figured I'd come in. Plus, I don't have time to play in the others so I can't keep up and get bored by the content. Oh well. Leaves me more time to train, right? Whatcha aiming for this year? |

Im doing my first marathon 5/3 (NJ cause its flat!)...have an oly and sprint and then going back to Timberman to do the whole thing this time! I never really joined kick..just lurk on rare occasion. I hang out here more than chrunners nowadays. A friend of mine told me about this place and I liked the way it was set up especially the logs and plus the ability to meet/be in contact with people that do tris and not just running was a bonus (not that ch has ANYTHING to do with running!). I can go to local road races and know quite a few people but with tris Ive generally been on my own. Being on my own has a certain bordom factor to it.
How about you guys any big races this year? you going back to Timberman.. going for broke and doing an IM? |

Member 36 | Subject: RE: New to BT, not new to tri's No Timberman this year. Costs too much to travel up there and ship the bike and all that jazz. I am, however, going the distance. I am signed up for the Great Floridian, as well as an HIM a month before on the same course. I am actually pretty psyched about it all. Although my legs are a tad tired considering today is the official first day of my training plan. Thank God I start out on a rest day. :D |

Cycling Guru 15134 Fulton, MD | Subject: RE: New to BT, not new to tri's Welcome to BT! We have a great community and (usually) get along really well. Only on a tri forum would someone ask to see pictures of a bike ..... most places it would be pictures of the wife! |
