December 09: Jerry W., Whittier CA.

My history with triathlon started in 1983 down in Baja, Mexico. There was for two years a half-ironman held there, long before the big surge of olympic and short course events were happeining in Calif. From there I did marathons, and five years later was introduced to trail running and soon to follow ultra runs and bike events filled my calendar.I have finished 3 Ironman events, and I am heading to St. George for my 4th in May of 2010. I raced at least 10 races or more a year, but this year I have cut back that number. For my 60th birthday( I am now 63) I ran 60 miles on a local track and many friends joined me for a number of laps throughout the day. I am entered into the Furnance Creek Hall of fame having done the event 5 times(4 person team div.). Maybe 70 marathons, and a few ultras. I am always looking for gear outlets that offer a personal feeling, quality products and fair pricing, in that order. Magui at Trijungle has met All those requirements and more. I recommend the store to my friends with complete confidence they will be pleased. I hope that as an amateur athlete I will Always remember that every event is made of PEOPLE. Embrace that often brief time with making friends, for what is remembered is the good time had. Thats’ All Folks. Sincerely, Jerry
