In today's paper there was an article about a local triathlete nominated for an ESPY (ESPN Sports Award) for disabled female athlete.
Her name is Amy Pamiero-Winters and she is a below the knee amputee who has done a 2:25 olympic and a 3:05 marathon. The ESPY's are based on online votes.
Apparently there is a link on ESPN.com that you can go to and vote for her. It would be cool for a triathlete to win this award! If you get a chance, check it out and vote.

And for the record I don't know her, only seen her on training runs and occasionally at races, so I have no personal stake on seeing her win!

Here's a copy of the link from the local paper.

Dang....I was scooped by Trifuel! :eek:
Funny thing is we live in a small town, there are only about a half a dozen of us that do Triathlons and I've never met her! I do see her running around town a bit though.

Thanks for the link.
Funny thing is our stellar local newspaper had a copy of the link under her photo but it was wrong!
