Why I love this sport

Another reason I love the sport of triathlon is because of people like this!  This sport is so inspiring, and truly anyone can do it.  I competed with a man who had no legs in my half-ironman in 2006.  If he can do it, and if this lady can do it, anyone can do it!

Also, I have to give a big shout out to my big sister Nikelle for starting and finishing her first distance race ever!  Way to go!  She swam 2 miles yesterday and raised money and food for one of our local food pantries and a local child advocacy center (a center for the prevention of child abuse).  I hope she's hooked!  We've got a big race coming up in November!  Beach2Battleship full iron distance triathlon will be hit with team Twisted Sisters!!
