Iron Girl Triathlon


My crazy yet genius sister Mandy, forced me, against my will to do another Triathlon.   We as a team of 50 women from all over, connected together through her website averagetrigirl.com for training and inspiration.  I personally trained alone, and wished I had a team around me.  But when we all came together at the Las Vegas Resort it was magical, to have so many women supporting each other.  I was thrilled to be doing it along side my mom and sister.  My thoughts right before we started the race in open water was.... What the H???? Why am I doing this.  I so hate my sister right now!  But once the swim was over I could somewhat enjoy it.  It is incredibly rewarding crossing the finish line knowing you, all by yourself accomplished something very hard.  Victory!  I am so glad its over, we will see if she gets me next year.
