About Me:: I enjoy hanging out with fun people doing crazy activities. Addicted to adrenaline and cookies.

Tri Distance:: Sprint, Olympic, 2x Olympic (or approx 70.3 mi/51.5km), Long course (or approx 140.6 mi/103km)

Tri Interest:: Training Partners, Training Groups, Event Meet-ups, Business Relationships, Friends

I'd most like to meet people from (separate multiple locations with commas):: All walks of life... Just as long as you are fun and friendly!

My Tri Story:: I got into this crazy sport 6yrs ago standing on the sideline watching a couple of buddies compete in the last Ironman California in Oceanside. It was quite a humbling experience being a spectator and from that moment on I wanted to give it a “tri.”

Having a background in swimming and water polo I knew this would give me some advantage over others; I mistaken. With little to no experience in cycling and running, I started from scratch. Since then I have completed several triathlon distances, 25+ marathons and a few IM’s: FL, CDA, AZ, and WI.

Thanks for the support. As you know finishing is the final step of a journey that takes many months. It was fun and rewarding and I'm already making plans for IMCDA next June.

Keep rockin!

I have been in Thailand for 4 years now and I love it and yes the food is fab!! Training is quite hard here because of the heat and humidity but I love training so much that I don't care and I am extremely excited about getting into this sport in a big way!! Hopefully one day I will have a page like yours, haha!
Great to meet you and may be looking to you for some hot tips. Shirl

As you know it is great just to finish your training and just do the event. I'm really ready mentally.

I drove the bike course today. It is so flat. I'm looking forward to the challenge. The weather is forecasted to be 75/49 with light wind. Water temp 70 so wet suit allowed. I hope God blesses me with a PR and health.

Take care,

Michael
