Jet, Set, GO!

Welcome to journey of making of an Indian triathlete!

I would use this space to share my experiences of training, nutrition, pain, motivation and most importantly the inspiration to become a triathlete.

I was a nice normal guy stuck in the routine with growing belly because of the sedentary lifestyle of the industry which I'm a part of, yes we build software by sitting long hours staring at our screens and playing with our keyboard. Everything looks/sounds good coz you get paid for it and you can buy things with the money you get by working on things whether you like it or not. The things which we buy are mostly not that we need but the things that we want(and we are not going to use them after a while).

So breaking the rut was important and even on personal front I had a breakup and was really low on how to get back to life! So I enrolled in the gym nearby and started workouts. It's painful in the beginning but once you get hold of it you start liking it and same happened to me. My motivation levels started going up and I started feeling good about my physical and mental strength that I gained out of it. In the process I made few good friends and a whole new way of taking challenges in life!

It was not that important to start with a story but to begin the conversation I think stories set the context and it's more personal as well.

So looking forward to share my experience via this blog. Stay tuned!
