No, I am not joining the Marines. This might ultimately turn out to be a bad idea, but I have decided to run the Parris Island Triathlon in March 2009. Back in February of this year, I decided to start working out a little. I’ve never been a fitness nut, but I realized that I was getting closer to 30 and wanted to make a few lifestyle changes. So I started running on the Capitol Crescent Trail which was directly behind our old apartment.
What a shock the first few runs were… But, by September when Heather and I started packing for our move back to SC, I was running 10K every other day, on average. By chance, I met a church member who was just getting into triathlons. After discussing the concept for a few weeks, we finally decided to start training together. Currently there’s three of us from Sea Island that are commited to running doing Parris Island and a few others who are interested in either running, swimming or biking.
In an attempt to kill two birds, I am tracking my progress here. First, I need to write more on this blog and two, with a few people watching, I hope to stay motivated and serious.
