since I spent so many hours in the gym. I really enjoy my alone time working out so I was apprehensive at trying out sports that would involve me joining a team. I eventually caved in. I started swimming and biking, and now I am a complete convert ever since I joined the Polo Tri Team.Triathlons have taught me so much about life.
