Describe a little bit about yourself and your interest in triathlon
I began in 1981 as a volunteer in a local race. Then decided to enter the local triathlon in 1983 and have not missed racing in at least one triathlon for 38 consecutive years. 2021 will be my 39th year. Endurance racing has been my medicine for helping me lead a healthy life style. The health information that has been generated over the decades as a direct result of the sport have been numerous. Triathlon has helped all sports learn how to better train, eat, hydrate, and live healthier. It’s not an end all for everyone, but it has been very good for me.
