I really do not have that exciting of a story. I am married with two kids and two dogs. I was a 3 sport athlete in high school and since then I have managed to become shockingly inactive. My grandfather used to tell me stories that he walked to school uphill, 10 miles to school everyday. I realized that it would be impossible for me to walk 10 miles anywhere and that concerned me. Therefore, my idea was born. I was going to try to live a life more accustomed to my grandfathers. I began wearing a pedometer, growing/preparing my own food, and exercising to try to get back into shape.
Unfortunately, the only thing that stuck was the growing/preparing my own food. When my friend Kevin, challenged me to do a Triathlon this summer, I thought why not. Then I realized it was grossly out of shape and this might be impossible. However, a wise man once said, "It is hard to comprehend our own possibility, without taking time to explore our view of the impossible." So here I am a trying to understand what is possible and hoping I don't kill myself in the process. This my story of the journey in case I don't make it.
