'T' is for Triathlete - ProfilesArchive

About Me

Fellow Americans, It is with the up-most pride and sincerity, that I present this recording as a living testament and recolection of history in the making during our generation. *** You probably already know me if I added you as a friend, but anyway, I was a distance runner/hurdler/high jumper in high school, nowadays I really enjoy swimming and biking too. I am a distance runner at heart, but struggle with the temptations of being a complete triathlete, the cycling world also tempts me, so I will just say I was made for endurance. I'm a Marine Corps combat correspondent stationed at Quantico since 2005, so I get three hots, a cot and a life of excitement. My favorite drink? Water, I don't touch cigarettes or drugs of any kind and never have. I listen to all kinds of music and that gets me through the day sometimes. I like to have fun at my own expense. I really miss the old Dot's and camp crews and of course the M-Squad and the XC team and maybe some of the track team. Frisbee is another specialty of mine and something I take very seriously. My other sport interests are the extremes, such as sky diving, which is becoming more and more of a finacial challenge since I have been dumping thousands of dollars into triathlons, a much more expensive endeavor than running ever was. My other new specialty is Rugby. I play for the Quantico Hooligans and I can't begin to explain how fun that is.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Lance Armstrong, Roger Bannister, Alberto Salazar or Stephan Jenkins, they are all inspirations to me.
