Subject: Introducing myselfI am a 42 year old woman in the Northwest.
About a year and a half ago, I reached my goal of losing 100 lbs through weight watchers, and martial arts.
I was inspired to go through this life changing experience mostly by my now 9 year old daughter who wears a blue belt in Tae Kwon Do and is one of the senior kid students at our martial arts school.
I now wear a green belt and when comparing the kid and adult programs we are essentially the same rank which is fun.
I decided this year to do my first sprint tri which will be the Danskin in Seattle in August.
This website has been incredibly helpful and is where I got my training plan from. I have to say thank you so much.
When I started the "couch to 5 K" type plan I could not run 1/4 mile and on Friday I ran 2.5 miles without stopping. I swear, even if I crash my bike in the race, the training will have been worth it as I really am enjoying the process.
I hope to "meet" you online and watch for more questions from a newbie like me as August approaches!
