Dare the Bear



Tomorrow, I compete in my first real triathlon, Black Bear in Lehighton, PA, along side one of my best friends and in front of our closests supporters.

650m Swim
11 mile Bike
3.1 mile Run

My meals this week have consisted of lots of fruit, whole grain breads, healthy fats like avocados, and lean meats or fish. Nothing fried or processed. After the race, Im eating an entire pound of brisket!!!!



I plan to get out there, be smooth and fast, and CRUSH IT!!!!

This time tomorrow, I will officially be a TRIATHLETE!!! This is but the first step in the road to Iron Man 70.3 in October. Heeeeere we go!!!
