My name is John Slocum and am a USAT Trained Long and Short Course Coach. Raised in a sports oriented household I began swimming at 4 and competitive swimming at 8. I played all the major sports and was competitive in softball all the way to national tournament level. Stick and ball sports were not my "thing" and I took up racing Motocross and eventually Drag Racing where I had a sucessfull 15 year career scoring multiple victories.
I always loved watching the Ironman World Championships on TV but at 239 pounds I thought I could never do that...and I couldnt...I was over weight and out of shape. This is when I saw "The Biggest Loser" Triathlon and found out there are shorter distances for triathlon, running and cycling events. I found a very short beginner Sprint Tri 3 months away, borrowed a bike, and started training. I found out I could bike about 1.5 miles and run half way around the block. I wish there was a beginner coach but there wasnt. I completed the race with a mid pack finish but they announced "John Slocum you are a Triathlete". I remember that announcement like it was yesterday. Fast forward to now and I have competed in well over 100 triathlons, running races, century rides and have many Age Group wins, 2 Ironman finishes and 4 years after finishing mid pack in my 1st race I want back and won it overall.
