I love a guy who will beg

I know its getting crowded in here but would really like to join this group. 

Name:  John (43)

Story:  I had knee surgery a year ago (Nov 2010) and was sitting in my bed the day after and thought it would be a good idea to sign up for an IM.  I had done a couple of sprints but nothing serious.  I have always been a terrible swimmer.  Signing up for the event was a great motivator to get off the couch.  It wasn't pretty but I did Louisville in August.  I struggled but I finished.  So now I want to go back and rock it in 2012.  

Family Status: Married for almost 18 years and have 3 kids (9, 7, and 3).  My wife is my rock and nothing phases her.  Even weekly 5 hour bike rides. 

2011 Races:  Indy Mini, Muncie 1/2 IM, and Louisville IM. 

2012 Races:  Martian Marathon in April, Indy Mini in May, Muncie 1/2 IM in July, Louisville in August, Fall Marathon TBD.  

What can I bring to the group?:  A quick wit, mixed with a bit of sarcasm, some political incorrect advice, and a slackers heart.   I log most days unless I am traveling and will be active on the thread. 

Thanks

WTF, I'll sign up, too.

Name:  Baxter

Story:  Not much of one.  I drank beer for the past 14 years and put on some weight.  One day, out of the blue, I decided I was going to do a triathlon.  Might have been the beer talking, but I signed up and finished 15 minutes under my goal time.  So, that made me want to do more.  And here I am. 

Family:  Married with a 6-month old boy of the same name, but with Jr. on the end of it. 

Training:  As much as I can when I can (get motivated to get my butt out of bed).  I plan to run 3+ times per week, swim 2+ times per week, and bike as often as my butt allows.

2011 Races:  Tri! Ballantyne Sprint distance. 

2012 Races:  I'm shooting for 5 or more races this year as well as the local Warrior Dash and possibly the time trial series at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Goals:  Lose at least 40 pounds this year.  Quit smoking (yeah, I know right),  Train and race the equivalent of 30 Iron-distance races this year.  Get my wife to sign up for a race. 

What Do I Expect From BT Mentoring:  Someone to hold me accountable and give me an endless supply of siht if I don't exercise at least 6 times per week.

Thanks Julia,

Yes, a fellow Tri Tippy.  I just have to learn to keep up with you!
