Triathlon and Road Racing.
Age: 49
Tucson, AZ
I started running marathons in 2000. After 5 marathons, I decided to transition into Triathlon. Since 2002 I have completed 7 1/2 Ironman distance races and 1 Full Ironman distance race (Ironman Florida 2004). 1/2 Ironman distance is my race of preference. I was shut down with a back injury for almost two years from 2004 to 2006. Since coming back from injury I have completed 2 1/2 Ironman distance races.
I am looking forward to transitioning into road bike racing. My experience in road racing has been El Tour De Tucson, Coshise County Classic and The Tour of The Tucson Mountains. I got my first Platinum designation at the 2007 El Tour De Tucson.
I am a residential real estate appraiser. I have been appraising real estate since 1981. I have had my own company since 1991.
