Subject: Once upon a time athlete Hello everyone. I have been reading the threads and figured it was time to quit the stalking/lurking.
Once upon a time I was very athletic (a competitive bodybuilder, loved basketball, football, racket ball, running, and biking ). Through some tragedies in my life and focusing on my career (instead of my health ) I lost the athlete. +100lbs and 10 years later I had my first brush with mortality (12/2011 ). I decided then and there that I would find that athlete and stick around for as long as I could (Living Life, Loving Life, and Being Healthy ).
I changed the way i was eating December 2011, I ran my first 5k in 11 years Spring 2012, I completed 3 obstacle course races Summer of 2012. Got on a road bike for the first time in 12 years Fall 2012. Winter of 2012 I signed up for my First Triathlon (Sprint in May 2013 ).
And now you know my story :- ). I could really use your advice/guidance/experience so I don't die out there.
Height: 5'8"
Age:32
SW:278lbs
CW:200
A triathlete in the making!
