Subject: Tri ing this out.
My name is Andy and i'm a 32 year old living in MA.

I'm a type 1 diabetic and have been for 30 years but I had always looked after myself until the last couple of years.

A few weeks back a friend and I took part in a 5k just for fun and I couldn't believe how hard I found it. Having always been in pretty good shape I didn't realize how much the last couple of years had caught up with me.

I wanted to give Triathlon a try because I know it is going to be a challenge and I need a challenge to motivate me. It sounds crazy but training for the good of my health does not work so I need goals.

Looking to learn a lot, get fit and have fun doing it.

Welcome to BT and triathlon! Good luck with your training and goals--there's actually a ton of Type 1 folks doing tri, several on this board.
