Hi, I’m Lori from Mass. and I’ve been on a diet roller coaster for many years.  Just recently the dr. told me I had to lose 20 pounds because I was overweight.  Well, that was the biggest slap in the face I ever received.  Never in my life have I been told that I needed to lose weight.....

So, after many months of trying to do it on my own and failing miserably, I am here to get and keep my motivation to move… My goal is to move every day at least 30 minutes of some sort of exercise whether it be walking the dog or weight work.  I am hoping to fit into those jeans this July and have the dr. tell me that I’m no longer overweight.

It’s important to know that at the end of the day it’s not the medals you remember.  What you remember is the process-- what you learn about yourself by challenging yourself, the experiences you share with other people, the honesty the training demands—those are things nobody can take away from you whether you finish last or you’re an Olympic Champion.

To tri is to risk failure, not to tri is to guarantee it!
