Welcome

In 2009 I discovered triathlon. Somewhere along the way, what started out as a personal challenge turned into a passion. This sport and the people I've met along the way have helped me in ways I never would have imagined. Physically, mentally, and spiritually.

In 2010 an effort was made to pass along those blessings. On the way to Ironman Florida, with your help, we raised over $10,000 for Wears Valley Ranch. This year, Tri4Him-Houston is putting together a collective effort to raise money for Emma's Hugs. By sharing "random acts of kindness" in the Texas Medical Center, Emma's Hugs is helping others in need and memorializing their child who lost her battler with Batten Disease just last year. To find out more or make a contribution just click on the link. With donations, please note "Tri4Him" in the comment section so we can track our progress and keep you posted.


This year's big race is the inaugural Ironman Texas, 5/21/2011, here in The Woodlands. It's my first race of 2011 and I'm excited for the chance to tackle an Ironman right here in our own back yard. I hope that 2011 will be an even bigger year as we continue to use this sport we love to serve something much bigger than us.

As usual, I'll be posting updates, training schedules, race reports, etc. I'd love for you to come along for the ride.

Joe's Comeback


After overcoming a broken back and suffering through months of leg pain, it looks like Joe is back on track. Joe and I took a little road trip up to Temple this week to see an old friend. Early indications are that Mike was able to fix Joe's leg and he should be up and running again in a couple of weeks.

What a story. We're all looking forward to his return in 2010. If you happen to be in the Kemah area on April 10th, I hope you'll come out and root for Joe in his return. You won't see the scars, just the smile on his face, and after our pilgrimage, a Tri4Him jersey on his back.
