Hey everybody, I'm Chris and I'm pretty new to triathlon. I'm currently a Junior at the University of Wisconsin where I spend most of my time, but during the summer I work as a Sailing School Instructor in Clear Lake, Iowa. I'm originally from Eden Prairie, MN where I now only spend a few weeks a year.

Last summer, I trained for the Twin Cities Marathon which was absolutely amazing...managed to run a 3:29 time so I've motivated myself to do it again in 2007. Training for the 2007 Lifetime Fitness Triathlon and the Oshkosh, WI Triathlon. I've kind of jumped right into the sport and decided to try out the Olympic distance...figured if I can run for four or more hours, I can swim, bike, and run for that time period too.

If anyone is in the Mason City area in Iowa and training for any events in or around mid-July, send me a message and we can hit the road/pool/lake together. Look forward to posting and reading some interesting information.
