Years Racing: 2nd year Tri/Xterra, 1st year Du/Road

Objectives: Work hard and Go Fast!

Favorite Race: Any race I haven't tried yet.  I get bored easily.

Admirable Athlete: My husband already knows I'm crazy and he won't believe me if I said he was the one I admire most.  He had the patience to teach me the skills I needed to take off and he continues to be my biggest fan.  He's my adventure Sherpa!

Unique info or story: Yes I teach people how to fly those little propeller airplanes and No they don't fall out of the sky if the engine stops. Flying airplanes is how I met my awesome husband. Then taught me how to ride bikes.  I think he scratches his head from time-to-time wondering what kind of monster he created. Just don't feed me after midnight...

Most embarrassing (race) moment: At my last Xterra I knocked over every single bike on the rack putting my running shoes on in T2.  I stood there in disbelief for a moment when someone in the laughing audience decided to help me clean up.  I never got to thank that nice lady...Thank You!!
