I didn’t start racing at all until I was 35 years old. I had been running for a couple of years and finally caved under the pressure of my running partners and signed up for a 5K. And the rest is history. I ran marathons and road races for about 6 years, until an injury forced me to have my first DNF on a marathon and sidelined me from running for at least 2 months. I knew I needed to do something else or I would go insane, and so the biking and swimming began. Since then I have done 3 half Ironman distances, one full Ironman and a handful of shorter distance triathlons. This year I’m focusing on improving my speed on every single distance and TriDot is my secret weapon!
