look at starting out in triathlon (see below for a description). To see more

Slow Fat Triathlete: Pursue Your Athletic Dreams in the Body You Have Now
by Jayne Willliams

Description:
The idea of participating in a triathlon may sound out of the realm of
possibility for those without a typical jock-athlete's honed build, intense
focus, and competitive mindset. But now Slow Fat Triathlete opens the door to
those who may not come quite so equipped. After years of obesity, poor health,
and self-doubt, Jayne Williams took part in her first triathlon in 2002 to prove
something to herself and became hooked on the rush of the race. Today she is a
self-proclaimed "slow fat triathlete," unafraid to overcome humiliation, laugh
at her foibles, have fun, and accomplish impressive goals. Slow Fat Triathlete
is a book for those who may be overweight, out of shape, undisciplined, or
otherwise unprepared to enter a triathlon but are curious to try. Through
personal stories, practical ideas and suggestions, and uproarious anecdotes,
this book inspires, encourages, and proves that with a little training, almost
everybody can have a great time and reap huge rewards from
pursuing their tri dreams - and that everyone can become a participant and an
athlete.
