Mad Manatees 2015.4 CLOSED (or Poptart/pet pic ticket) (Page 60)

Great to hear from you, Steve!

Sorry everyone, I'm super late to the new thread.  Here are my vitals.  This also explains why I might have just added you on the Strava group.

NAME: I'm Tom. I'm 32 and from Dayton, OH.  
STORY: I first got into triathlon after my brother did a super-sprint.  Of course, I couldn't let him be the only one to do a tri.  I figured if I could swim and bike and run, it shouldn't be too bad.  This will be my fifth year as a triathlete.
FAMILY STATUS: Single with no pets.  Which makes me an outlier so far as this group goes, I think.
CURRENT TRAINING: I'm currently using this year to focus on running.  I want to run some fast 5Ks.  I've been building up mileage in the last few months to do a couple HMs before getting into 5K training.  I managed to pick up an overuse foot injury the Wednesday before New Year.  So I've been cooling my heals the last few weeks, and am just getting back into things.
THIS YEAR'S RACES/EVENTS: I'll do 3-5 tris, as I'm still a member of a local tri club.  But I'm mainly focusing on running, and 5Ks specifically.  I'll be updating my training logs with my races.
BODY COMPOSITION: I gained five pounds after finishing my tri season and cutting back the training at the end of tri season in September.  That has NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE! Uh oh. Welcome to the 30s.

Once a Manatee, always a manatee.  Even 60 pages late into a new thread.

I'm kind of on the disabled list.  I injured myself right before this race.  It felt like a stress fracture at first, but I got an X-ray and it was negative.  Symptoms also line up with peroneal tendonosis.  So hopefully if I quiet things down, I'll get better sooner.  But it also puts my Phoenix HM in jeopardy.  :/

Hmm, thought I was on the new thread...
