I'm an adult age group athlete who never participated in sports of worked out as a kid. I fell in love with running about 12 years ago; however after being diagnosed with a DVT and suffering permanent vein damage in my right leg, I was told I'd never be able to run again. So, I took up swimming. Thanks to some luck and a few doctors who were willing to take a chance, I've been able to resume a normal life. And since I was running and swimming, the obvious next step was to learn to bike and try a tri! I've been hooked ever since. I'm not the fastest or the strongest, but I'm grateful to be able to participate in a sport with such a supportive and diverse community of athletes. I've made some lifelong friends along the way. My philosophy is that as most of us aren't professional athletes (this is our hobby), it's supposed to be FUN! So getting out there and enjoying the journey is the goal!
