One side of the Biggest Loser<\/a> that we never get to see is life after the contestants leave the ranch. Overall, they each go on to lead healthy, active lifestyles. They also have a very tightly-knit alumni community. From this, the contestants have support from the few people who truly know what the experience was like during and after, they create life-long friendships, and it gives them running buddies.\"\"<\/p>\n

But not ordinary running buddies, like having someone to jog around the block with. No, these individuals take on endurance races<\/a> together. This weekend, they’re headed out to the San Francisco Triathlon at Treasure Island.<\/p>\n

More than fifty Biggest Loser contestants are decending upon the annual event, taking place July 9-11. Individuals representing seasons one through nine will be in attendance participating in either the triathlon, 5K or 10K events.<\/p>\n
