Resident in Clearwater Florida past 3 years. I am cyclist, runner, swimmer (only during triathlons LOL). I have completed one Olympic Triathlon in San Francisco north bay, where I was first in my age group 30-34, and 17th overall. I recently participated in the IRONMAN Panama City FL 2020 on November 7th, as I completed the race with an 11 hour 5 minute time (top 10%), beating my goal of 12 hours. I grew up playing all sports, but needed something else as I began my professional working career in electrical project management. Cycling got my attention, with the thrill of riding fast, keeping in shape, and riding nice equipment has peeked my interest. I am a Christian as I live a life with Christ in the center of my heart, I walk the life and have the faith! I work hard, train hard and have fun! Picky bars and the drizzle spread keeps me going during the long hours of training!
Updates in 2022: Full time cyclist (no more Ironman's for a while), I still have my day job as a project executive for Power Design company based in St Petersburg FL. Finished top 20 at Hincapie Chattanooga Gran Fondo 80 mile course, 5-6k elevation gain 20mph avg speed. Six Gap, finished top 40, with a 5:23 hour time, 800+ male contestants. I joined FloridaVelo Racing Team locally in Florida, participated in first road race, and circuit race with the team.
