Squashing Fears

I never grew up in the water, I failed swimming lessons as a child, swimming was what I thought impossible. After watching a triathlon last summer I wanted BAD to become a triathlete! November was the start on many hours in the pool. How funny to be 31 learning to blow bubbles and be comfortable putting your face in the water. I concurred my biggest fear, THE WATER!


88 people entering the water, 48 men & 40 women


Lake Superior is one intimidating body of water!

I DID IT! 15:31




T1 2:04


On the bike 49:03

T2 0:38







What I enjoy best the run, although I did not recognize my legs! This is one hard transition! 23:37









I'm a TRIATHLETE!
1:30:56




























I am so grateful for you Sarah! You inspire me in so many aspects of life! I can not thank you enough for the time you spent with me in the pool. The incredible athlete you are is a mirror of the incredible person you are. I love you my friend!
