Hey Yall from North Carolina

Hello, My name is Lucas as I'm a triathlatholic.

I have been using this site for almost a year and starting using the forum a few months ago, that said I decided i should stop being a lurker and introduce myself. I just finished my first season and I love triathlon. I completed 2 sprints and a virtual Olympic. I started running last October to lose weight and after my first 5k at midnight on 1/1/10 I decided to start cross-training with cycling and swimming to become faster. I figured if I was working all three I might as well do it all my best. I wanted to start competing but couldn't find an affordable bike, in June I was given a 1986 Dave Scott bike and started racing. My first race was 1:33 and my last was 1:16. I have also succeeded at trimming 7 minutes off my 5k time and losing 43 pounds.
