Three times is the Charm-Battling Obesity and Becoming an Ironman. Friday, September 30, 2011. What a long strange year its been. What I have been doing for the last few months has been an eye opener and hopefully will be life changing. My iron levels were so low, I got an iron infusion just a few days later.

TRI FOR JOY - Triathlon and Life. Sunday, March 10, 2013. 2013 Season is Underway! Pacers St. On a weekend of consecutive 60 degree days, I ran my first race of the season. Together with Stuart and Riley, we made the trek into DC for the St. If you ever have a chance in the DC area, sign up for one of the Pacers. And it was time to line up.

Monday, May 21, 2012. I think this race was a great learning experience for me. I think when I talked about it with my friends, they thought I was not feeling great about it because I may have seemed negative, but on the contrary, I realized some pretty serious things in the time I took to do this race. So, because I swam a really good line, about every minute or so, someone would try to swim over me, or I ran into a slower swimmer. So I did, and that went very well.
