| About Me: |
2003 was my first year of attempting races of any kind. I did three triathlons (two sprint, one olympic) and two biathlons.
I'm looking forward to another season and I've ambitiously (for me) signed up for two international distance races so far.
I am (perhaps unusually in triathlons) a swimmer from childhood, but running is by far my weakness (also perhaps unusual in triathlons). Especially because every time I seem to feel better about running I injure my hip flexor and have to start all over. |

Programmer |
| Who defends the ranch when I'm out training: |
