2 CRONIN ATHLETICS Michael Cronin 201 Plains Rd, Walden, NY A B O U T M E I am fitness success story, being that I weighed almost 300 pounds in high school and in my late teens, with aspirations of becoming a professional firefighter, I knew I had to lose it and become highly conditioned for the testing process associated with the selection process. Nearly diagnosed with high blood pressure that would follow me for the rest of my life, I knew I had to make changes. It took a couple of years to get to where I am now, but the hard work has paid off. I ate more healthy foods, exercised, and became more active throughout his day. By doing this, I was able to drop nearly 70 pounds in the first 15 months. This wasn't accomplished by becoming a strict vegetarian and saying no more to cookies. I accomplished this through moderation. I always say that if I can do it, than so can you. In 2013 I completed my first IRONMAN Triathlon, a 112 mile race of three disciplines in under 17 hours. Swim, Bike Run. My most recent venture has been a 26.2 mile marathon ruck (65 pounds) event in the Appalachian Mountains.
