Well, here I am. 30 yrs old. with wife and child and the stereotypical male, comfortable with life and out of shape body - thats about to change. My good friend who works for a sports supplement company has talked me into training for my first TRI! Not only is it my first try but it's the Oceanside Half Iron Man. I come from a cycling background so I'm not worried about the 56 miles at all on the bike but we are going to work dilliegently on my swimming and running. Oh by the way, I'm 235 now with an ultimate goal of 180 or less by the event...9 months away!! Wish me luck!!

Good luck

I'm in the same boat - 239, I just want to see the other side of 200 (it's been a long time), but 180 sounds nice too!

That is great that you have to motivation to do this, it will help having that friend pushing and prodding. Remember all you have to do is finish the race. Man my first is going to be a sprint and that is scarying me. I am a female that is over 200lbs too. After the holidays I was up to 228 and now after 2 months of training i am down to 216. This sight is wonderful, look into the weight loss challanges, it provides support and companionship. Good luck and keep going.
