New user 5 Bay SHore |  Subject: 41 and overweight...yup, gonna Tri in Sept !after ballooning up to 265lbs ( 5' 10" ), ill be taking on the hopfully enjoyable task of getting inshape again, and completeing my 1st sprint tri in September ( .6 Mile swim, 15mile bike, 5k run ). Plan is to work on diet / general fitness starting TODAY, and with 20 weeks to go, be in decent enough shape to start a tri-program. Been lurking on these boards for a month or so, and wanted to introduce myself. wish me luck. |

Expert 958   Mississippi | Subject: RE: 41 and overweight...yup, gonna Tri in Sept ! WELCOME!!! and Good Luck. A surprising amount of people have joined the triathlon world on a weight-loss venture (including me). I was up at about 225 my freshman year of college and decided it was time to do something about it. I was always interested in triathlon and got going. I lost over 40 lbs in 6 months. You'll probably surprise yourself with what you're able to do. Couple triathlon training with a sensible diet and weight will really come off in a healthy manner! |
