Why triathlon?

"I moved to CA when I was 23 because I wanted adventure and to be outdoors year round. My first job was at Jamba Juice where I got my hands on Competitor. I read about triathlon there (along with a whole lot about plastic surgery - it was Orange County) and I knew it was a sport I wanted to master. I signed up for the Mermaid, but come race day, the bike was cut. My first sprint tri was in 2016? Lake Tahoe Tri. I loved it. My first Olympic was Donner Lake. Santa Cruz 70.3 in 2019. Really, I always wanted to have my race day number tattoos, yet I’ve always just had them written on with marker. I’m hoping this September, I’ll actually feel enough like a triathlete to warrant buying a set."
