Training Week 2

The Fat Triathlete has completed a triathlon!
Things didn't work out as I had planned and to be honest it was quite a tragic day
for me but I did finish. Look for the website to be completely
overhauled and the complete story in the next few months.

Thanks for stopping by. This is my personal website chronicling the saga of my triathlon dream. It started years ago and although I have been sidelined by injuries, jobs, and a host of other roadblocks the dream is still alive. When will I finally get to finish a triathlon? As I get closer to my goal I will attempt to update as much as possible but minor things like Hurricanes have slowed my journalistic progress. Enjoy the site and email me your comments.

See Ya Out There,
