I missed out on the Olympics as a Football Fern and picked up a knee injury. I started swimming and was absolutely useless. I love a challenge so decided to teach myself how to swim by watching youtube videos. I figured triathlon is a sport where I would be in complete control of good I could be. Four years on I am coached by Olympic Triathlon coach Murray Healey edging myself closer to the dream.
Hardest part about being a Triathlete:
Trying to stay awake at work.
Best part about being a Triathlete:
The pain is brutal. It is the most bizarre love hate relationship. The physical and mental demands are ruthless but I swear lying on the finish line trying not to be sick; there is nothing more satisfying.
Upcoming events:Olympic Distance World Champs Edmonton, Canada; 1st September.
70.3 World Champs Mont Treblant, Cana da; 7th September. Words of wisdom for upcoming Triathletes out there:In the famous words of Micheal Jackson; "Don't stop till you get enough."
