Why I do this...

A reminder of why I'm doing this;

First of all, Triathlons just seem like fun (though, I haven't acutally done one). Then, I like the prospect of enjoying optimal health as a Triathlete, well into my golden years. Thirdly, I've enjoyed being welcomed into a community of people that have common interests (I could use more friends in my life). While losing some weight around my midsection is a goal, Triathlon training has been the best motivation for getting there. Finally, Trialthletes have some of the sexiest bodies on the planet and I want to be considered to be one. When I'm 50 and 60 years old (and beyond), I would still want to be considered sexy. :-) If nothing else, I want to do my to never look my age.

Who wouldn't want to be feeling what this guy is feeling:

Whether you were first or you finished at your own pace, you have to be proud of the accomplishment.
