I've been doing tris since 2004, coming from a running background. I jumped in with both feet, and soon did my first half IM and signed up for my first full. I had no idea what I was getting into, but I lived and loved it! Since then I've worked to not just complete races but to also improve my own personal records. So far so good, and in 2007 I PR'ed at the IM and half IM distances by over an hour and twenty minutes at each!

In 2008 I will be focusing on a 50k trail race in January, and then the Muskoka 70.3 race in September, as well as perhaps my first Olympic. I'm also just starting to train with Power on the bike, and will be using it to get the most of my limited time as I head to grad school part time. I'll be working with MarkyV and marrying mikedonia to keep up my passion for the sport while getting stronger.
