Howdy from China
Originally from UT, but have working in China and Thailand for about 16 of the past 20 years. I currently live in Shenzhen, China. I've got 5 boys (ages 14 to 3), I'm 40 next year and could be addicted to triathlons--we'll know for sure at noon on Dec 6.
I'm just this year getting into biking and doing my first Tri this Dec. in ****et, Thailand. I signed up for the tri as a way to keep me motivated to lose weight and get in shape--I've dropped over 50lbs this year and plan on finishing the tri (1800m, 55k, 12k) in 4 hours! Wish me luck.
I ride a Trek x700--bought it from a friend. Have no clue about it, really. I'll get it tuned up before the race and then pray that I don't have any issues.
