I was at about 232, slow and generally not very happy with myself. So I decided to go commando on myself and did a SlimFast/Subway diet combined with regular exercise (mostly running). From July 2003 to November 2003, I dropped about 20 pounds. I was on a roll, so I decided to do my first triathlon (<a href="http://www.uvsctri.com">http://www.uvsctri.com</a>). <br /> <br />Over the next year, I used triathlon training as a reason to stick with the exercise schedule. I stopped calling it "working out" and started calling it "training." My first year of triathlons was pretty much in the lower middle of people racing in my age group (35-39). Being the big guy that I was, I was basically happy with that and quickly becoming one of the faster guys in my area over 200 pounds ("Clydesdales" in racing parlance). <br /> <br />I have come to love the sport of triathlon and the motivated, interesting people I have met. It is exciting to feel the adrenaline that comes with competition and to be around people who are constantly trying to improves themselves. I am excited about the year to come. Hopefully I will have some good stories to share. <br /> <br />Stay tuned. <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9131605-110028982345690676?l=mburnzie1.blogspot.com'/></div>Burnshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07528284697625971499noreply@blogger.com3
