I got hooked on triathlons after looking for something to do when spending my first Thanksgiving away from family during college (2007). I started out on a borrowed mountain bike wearing regular gym clothes but fell in love with the triathlon community. Over the years I have progressed from sprint to olympic to 70.3 and this year I will be taking on my first 140.6 (IMTX) with the help of TriDot! As an expat, I have had the opportunity to be part of the triathlon community in Kuwait and Oman where I got great training advice from the local tri clubs. This year I have moved back to the US and found TriDot as I was seeking guidance in preparing for IMTX. During this training process, I have progressed from just wanting to finish to feeling strong and confident in my ability and having a realistic RaceX plan that helps me see what I might be capable of. I look forward to putting my training to the test!
