Further to Tony “When the new groups start up the posts will be fast and furious, don't feel like you have to read every single post, things will calm down after a month or so they always do.” We only had about 500 posts last session. Edited by Redknight 2010-12-23 1:55 PM |

Elite 3072 san francisco | Subject: RE: swbkrun with us!!! - Closed Techdiver - 2010-12-23 8:03 AM NAME: Chris aka SPANKY ya ya I know had the nickname for years LOCATION: Southern Ontairo Canada YEARS RACING TRIATHLON: 0 about 6 months since my first Try a Tri OTHER HOBBIES: Hiking, Kayaking, Photography, and SCUBA DIVING. I have Been scuba diving for 16 years now. I am a Deep Mixed Gas Technical diver and a Cave diver. I usually spend one week a year in Florida Cave diving. I now dive a machine called a Closed Circuit Rebreather that recycles my gas and changes gas mixtures on the fly allowing me time to stay down for hours on small amounts of gas. But with much higher risk level. I do some teaching but much less now. FAMILY: Wife Tina, 1 Dog Sasha (alaskan malamute) 1 Cat Chloe WORK: Mechanical Engineer, More into management role and Continuous Improvements RACES I have done: Tomato Man Try a Tri, Rondeau Try a Tri, Jingle Bell 5K run FAVORITE Discipline: Cycling, It burns calories, I enjoy riding in the country with my friend and just taking everything in for hours at a time. WHERE I STARTED WITH THIS: A co-worker of my wife decided to do a try a tri last year told me all about it I thought about it all winter and said heck ya I can do this. I just need to loose some damn weight. In april I stepped on the scale realized that a 5'6" tall (ok ok SHORT) guy should not weight 279 lbs. So I started eating better, recording my meals and educating myself. By May I was down to 265lbs and pretty happy, then I talked to some friends doing a couch to 5K running program and I started that VERY SLOWLY I might add. It was TOUGH as H3LL. I actually gave up 4 weeks in. Then ended up on BT and found an old College Friend on here. She offered to meet up with me for Coffee etc. Couple of PMs later and we realized that we were old friends from College, once we knew who each other we hooked up and she has been a Mentor, workout buddy and a good friend again ever since. She helped me extend my biking from 30-50km rides then next thing I knew I did a 98km ride, She came out with me on some runs and I did my first Try a Tri in June. It was fun and horrible at the same time. Only been swimming for 3 weeks prior to it. I blew up on my run and walked half the 2km. But I finished it and I was HOOKED. Oh ya I am down to 215 lbs now. So I have lost 64 lbs since I started watching myself and more so 50lbs since I started training. WHERE I CAN USE SOME HELP. Everywhere I am a total NEWBIE. I have a great local workout buddy and Mentor but she admits she knows what works for HER not for me. She is a teacher with summers off so she picks up volume in the summer where I can not. I can Ride 100km now, Swim 2500M on a swim night in a pool. I can run 10km now. I am slow at all of them. But I am working on them all. My short legs means I won't ever run fast. But I keep seeing improvements and hope to continue down that path. 2011 RACE SCHEDULE Potential Missisauga or Ottawa Half Marathon Leamington Sprint Triathlon Welland Sprint Triathlon A bunch of local WRACE 5k and 10K events. A few guys from work lost a lot of weight too and are doing these now. I am slow and Steady, I try hard, I work hard, I am willing to try new things and take advice. I know I will never win any races. But I am winning a war with myself when it comes to health. Triathlons are giving me more with respect to that then any PLACING in the top would ever do. Seeing there are enough Canadians here. I hope to see some of you at an event sometime or even for just some fun. Oh ya and I promised my buddies I would squeeze in some scuba diving this year too. I didn't do much last year. Welcome, Spanky! Congrats on the awesome lifestyle changes and losing incredible amounts of weight! Keep up the great work, I think you will be surprised how fast short legs can go. |

Veteran 336 Yorktown, VA & Langley AFB | Subject: RE: swbkrun with us!!! - Closed NAME: Brent Mathews LOCATION: Abilene, Texas FAMILY: Married (18 Years) w/ one 13 daughter (UGH!) and the dog RACING HISTORY: It all started this spring... 5K's then a 10K then an 8 Mile Turkey Trot (Dallas YMCA). Half mary planned for Jan 9th. ZERO Tri race experience. WORK: Active Duty US Air Force for 18 years in aircraft maintenance. Its taken me all over the world and I've enjoyed every minute of it! OTHER HOBBIES: Tournament archery is my first passion... I'm a factory sponsored amateur shooter competing mostly in the Texas area in ASA 3D tournaments. I've been shooting competitively for 6 years and bow hunting for about 9 years. I also help coach/design local youth archery programs. STORY: OK, so as you read, I'm military but as you move up in rank in the military you don't work as hard physically its more mental. All that thinking doesn't burn any calories so I was packing on the lbs; February of this year I was just over 210, I'm only 5'7"!!! Early spring I started, working out with some buddies from work - The Insanity videos - it was a good jump start to get me motivated. Started eating cleaner and being more active all around with overall fair results and generally felt better. Come June timeframe, my wife brings home these applications for a 5K race. I had run 5K's for Air Force functions before so I thought "no big deal" -- It kicked my tail! I tried to go all out from the start (like I do everything!) and burned out at 2 miles. Now I'm mad... mad at myself for a poor time, for not being prepared, for not performing my best. Now I'm driven to improve and I do just that - began training runs that very week. Researched like crazy, changed my running style and beat it. Over the next few months, we run several more 5K's and my times drop like flies (PR to date 21:22) I've been fighting this triathlon bug for about 5 years... I've always thought doing a tri would be fun and exciting and I view triathlons as a top fitness sport. This past August was my birthday... I gave in, moved one step closer and bought a road bike. Began training on it and now riding is by far my favorite part. My Wife says I'm going through a midlife crisis with all this triathlon talk... my friends all agree with her and look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them about my training bricks. I love it! I feed on the chase to beat my last time or fastest pace. To me its not about the competitors, the biggest competitor is myself and doing my personal best! WHERE I COULD USE HELP: Swimming - I am not strong in the swim at all. I know the life guard at the pool was glad to see my leave the other day. I almost drowned myself twice! Luckily the pool is only 5 feet deep... Nutrition - gels, powders and bars... oh my! So many options, I just need to hear more personal experiences with what works and what doesn't work in regards to your long training session/race day nutrition. WHAT I BRING TO THE GROUP: I am highly self motivated. I enjoy doing a ton of reading/researching before making decisions. I think I can bring a completely unbiased view to discussions, I'm totally new to all of this what do I know? I do have experience with obtaining corporate sponsorship, so if anyone has questions about that type of stuff just let me know. I look forward to learning and absorbing everything I can from every one of you. ---------------------------- Brent |

Veteran 305 Wichita Falls | Subject: RE: swbkrun with us!!! - Closed Ok, so now I have time to add the bio: NAME: Steve (Mac) LOCATION: Wichita Falls, Texas FAMILY: Married for 12 years and have 4 kids (15, 10, 10 and 6) RACING HISTORY: I did a couple of local 5ks and rode in the Hotter N Hell 100 WORK: MSgt (E7) in the USAF in Munitions Maintenance (2W2) OTHER HOBBIES: I coach soccer and am an avid Crossfitter. I have wrestled my whole life, I fought Muay Thai and MMA (7 years), and played rugby (18 years). STORY: My last duty assignment was Kleine Brogel AB in Belgium. It is a little NATO base in the north eastern part of Belgium. While there, I got accustomed to the social life. Well, I got a little too accustomed. I began to drink A LOT of beer and we all know what happens to your gut when you drink beer and eat fried food... I ballooned up to 291lbs. Well, the USAF finally decided to become a military service and has enacted a pretty hardcore PT program. I failed miserably. I have never been a small guy, but I looked at myself after that failure and I realized that I was dying. Slowly but surely, I was killing myself with my lifestyle. My family has a history of heart disease and diabetes and I was sure headed that way. What scared me the most was that two of my friends died last year from heart attacks at the age of 38. I didn't want to die and leave my family, so I decided to change. I took my measurements (5'8", 291, 46" waist) and proceeded to my first Crossfit class. I didn't make it through. That was in April of this year. Since then, I have lost 53lbs and took 8.5" of my waist. I have added running 3-5 times a week and cycling (both road and mtn) 2-3 times a week. I have always thought of doing triathlons, but never fulfilled it (just look at my join date). I remembered this site and started lurking again. I realized that I can do this. WHERE I COULD USE HELP: Swimming and a little motivation. I tried swimming a bit this past summer and realized that I suck at it! HAHA! I can also be lazy at times. Some days, I need that little nudge to get me moving in the right direction. Plus, my wife is an enabler and allows me to sleep in on those COLD winter days, HAHA! WHAT I BRING TO THE GROUP: I think I have a mild form of OCD. If I am focused on something, I tend to become obsessed with it. I also read a ton and research everything before I make a decision. It took me almost 8 months of research before I bought my first road bike. I am also an expert at HTFU! It was the only way to survive in my past endeavors. I look forward to sharing/learning with you guys in the future! |

Elite 3395 Raleigh | Subject: RE: swbkrun with us!!! - Closed Many new MG members have said that swimming is where they need help. If Suzy can go from fear of swimming to an IM than there is hope for everyone. With only a little bit of technique you can see a lot of improvement in swimming. In the last year I have brought my time for 100 yards down from 1:57 to 1:21. The MG can be pretty helpful in this discipline. |
