Five years ago I was a regular person who went to the gym on a regular basis. A buddy of mine suggested doing a triathlon with him. After minimal training, I competed and had the "worst time" by the clock, but the "best time" I've ever had in a triathlon. On May 19th, I will be competing in Ironman Texas in the Woodlands, TX. It all started because I found a passion and something that I believe in and enjoy. The moral of the story, find something that you love and pursue it. Good luck in any change for the better!
