Healing Through Triathlon


Today was all about showing up, seeing what I could do, and racing against myself. New body, new challenges.


Seven years ago I signed up for a triathlon just to see what the local fuss was all about - the Boulder Peak olympic tri. I had no idea what I was doing, I could barely ride a bike, and my first open water swim practice ended in a panic attack. 

Seven years later, I showed up to the same starting line with so much gratitude just to be there. Today I had a personal best Olympic swim, crushed the Olde stage climb, and ugly cried on the run - because I’m alive and moving and outside with the people I love. And that is all I need.
