I TRI because I can

About Me

I just finished my first triathlon in April 2008 and it rocked! I trained with The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team In Training while raising money for those affected by blood cancers. I raised over $5,000 and managed to get in the best shape ever. Accomplishing this goal changed my life. Now I can't get enough of the outdoors! I'm into trail running, biking, running, swimming....... I'm an environmental chemist and love my job. -How many people can say that? I'm also a bit ansy so I constantly have to be working on a goal/s in order to be happy. Currently I'm running on a cross country team which has me training 5-6 days a week. I can honestly say I'm really enjoying it! This team'll take me through till December. After that, who knows.... We'll have to wait and see what craziness I come up with next. XO!
