Okay. I’m gonna do it. No, seriously….this time I’m really gonna do it. I’ve batted around the idea of attempting to complete a triathlon for years. Ever since I started cycling 10 years ago I’ve watched the Ironman Triathlon with equal parts awe and intrigue. I hate to swim (I swim fine…I just don’t like [...]

I need to tighten up my diet for the next 6 weeks and do 20-30 minutes of cardio EVERY workout. I need [...]

Actually, it’s not Day one….more like Day 50 or something but it’s Day One of the journal so deal with it. On November 1st I weighed 255 lbs (I’m 5′8″) and as of last week I was down to 241 lbs. I’m back up to 243 or so; probably due to the fact that [...]
