Master  1699     Malvern, PA |  Subject: Hi!I'm Greg Pesot! I'm a married(heather) father of three boys (max(6), matt(4), and mick(2)) I've always exercised - mostly to maintain weight and stay healthy - lifted weights, running, rowing, etc. Had done running races for a couple of years until last summer and just got bored - singing the same song over and over in my head and was just looking for something a little more exciting! I had always wanted to do a triathlon and started training two winters ago and did my first tri last summer - horrendous swim but nice bike and run - then I crashed last july and broke the collarbone and wrist - but recovered quick enough to do one more last labor day and did much better than my first since I knew what to expect. so this past winter I upped my training volume and intensity a little bit and signed up for five sprints - did very well in the first three - skipped the fourth due to rough surf and my fifth is labor day weekend! So I guess I do this for a few reasons - personal hobby, fitness, enjoyment, role model for my kids, weight maintenance, healthy body=healthy mind, etc. I was posting on the "other" newbie forum but it seemed to get a little too serious - too much Ironman talk! |

Champion 13323   Gold member | Subject: RE: Hi! yeah...i think i saw your race report post...rough surf...? i think i may have done the same thing given the situation... good luck on labor day and hopefully a little calmer waters. |

Not a Coach 11473 Media, PA | Subject: RE: Hi! Hi Greg, I'm just getting started on the tri thing--shooting for my first next season--and have just started getting my feet wet (haha) on the swim and will on the run soon. Probably not much of a training partner yet, but I live near Media (Upper Providence near Ridley Creek Park) so may be a possibility in the future. Do you have a brother Jeff--formerly of The Prep & The 'Cuse? John |

Not a Coach 11473 Media, PA | Subject: RE: Hi! Know Jeff from several places. A small world grows smaller. I'll PM the details. I've just decided to get into the tri so at the moment I own only a hybrid bike, plan on buying my first pair of running shoes (at least intended for actual running) in over a decade this week, and have attempted swimming a grand total of 3x only to realize I need a lot of technique work in addition to the conditioning. So it may take me a bit before I'm able to keep up much. |
