Team Ordinary Athlete: Caniano, Joe

How I Started Running:

I grew up as a swimmer, lifeguard, beach rat, etc. I had been a competitive swimmer from the time I was 8 years old all the way through college. After college the competitive meets are all gone, the lifeguarding is gone. Once you have a real job and kids, the beach is gone. Running has been my go-to exercise for fitting in with a busy family life style. It was a quick jump to triathlon given my swimming background.

My Favorite Moments / Biggest Accomplishments:

My favorite moments as an athlete: my HS swim team winning the County Championship 4 years in a row.

Future Goals:

Completing Lake Placid half Ironman , 9/8/2019
Eventually completing a full Ironman.
