Master  3195     Just South of Boston |  Subject: 4 Years off the couch todayJust realized it was 4 years ago today I got off the couch and made my way to the local YMCA to start a fitness class (Men's fitness bootcamp was the name). Had spent too may years inactive, behind a desk, and making poor food choices, and had never been heavier. Not a good physical situation. Since then I managed to lose 60 pounds, get fit, and find triathlon (and then learned to run & swim). Currently training for my 4th HIM which happens this June. Never felt better in my life. Good Stuff  |
