About Me

Before I became a triathlete I was a runner. It started in middle school and continued through high school where I ran cross country and track. After high school I ran for Oregon State University for 2 1/2 years. When I was done running for OSU I was burned out of running and had a hard time finding motivation to get out of the house and run. I had lost my love for it. This was really hard on me because I am a person that has to be competing. So it was then time to find something else that I would enjoy and be able to competitively compete in.

I'm still not exactly sure on how I came across triathlons, but when I came across this sport I was very intrigued. I already had the running background and I had been swimming the previous 5 years for cross training. So all I needed to add was the bike. Thus, the start of me becoming a triathlete.

This is an amazing sport and has been a fun adventure so far. I enjoy the challenges it brings and how it pushes me to new heights. I am looking forward to my long and healthy relationship with triathlon :D
