"A Completely Different Person."...

3 years and 20 pounds ago.

This weekend will be the anniversary of the day that I competed in my very first sprint triathlon out in Buffalo, MN.

Now I get to come back to that very same race as a completely different person. However, instead of the Sprint race, I will be doing the Olympic course. Using it towards my training for @ironmantri Madison in only 100 short days.

I will say it over and over again. Becoming a triathlete saved my life.
It made me become stronger, healthier and happier than I could have ever imagined.
I had made a lot of bad choices in my life leading up to these last years, but as soon as I stepped foot into that transition area and put on my wetsuit, I knew that my life was going to be changed for the better from that moment on....


That day I did a 1/2 mile swim, 14 mile bike and 3 mile run.
Never in a million years did I think that in a few short years I would be training to do a full 140.6 miles.

Life is crazy. And we can never predict where it's going to take us. And that's scary as hell. But you better believe I am going to enjoy the shit out of this journey that I am on.
