Subject: RE: JohnnyKay and Fred Doucette's HIM/IM focused Mentor group-CLOSEDFred Doucette - 2011-07-26 11:38 AM Looking forward to all of the LP rr coming up. So here's a question? Why do all of you so triathlon? (off shoot from a tri talk thread) After playing team sports all the way through college I wanted to try a new angle towards fitness. I did my first tri and was in awe of all the positive support not just from spectators, but other competitors on the course. Playing Lacrosse and football in high school and college you never saw this at any point...EVER! I was hooked from that moment on, but reasons why I still do triathlons and love them so much; 1. Great sense of accomplishment, not just racing, but staying disciplined through training 2. Stress reliever and great chance to get in touch with nature on your own 3. Support with and of other 4. Pushing myself to limits, breaking those limits, and then pushing towards new limits 5. It's a freakin' blast! 6. My constant quest to find the honey badger someday |
