Profile

My whole life I was an "intellectual" (no, really; that's how I referred to myself). I wasn't active, although I (hypocritically) professed the importance of caring for your body. But I didn't do anything about it. Maybe lifted the occasional weight. Biked the occasional mile. Then I started training for a triathlon. I did my first one on July 18, 2006, and swore that I'd never do it again. The next day, I couldn't wait to do another race! Since then, my journey has taken far, far into the realms of physical fitness. I'm currently a personal trainer at a local gym. Besides personal training, I coach triathletes, coordinate my gym's multisport club, teach swim lessons, manage the aquatics department, and teach group fitness classes. I love my job (most of the time) and the difference I'm making in people's lives. I'd love to help make a difference in your life, so if you have any questions about health and fitness, please feel free to contact me!

Hometown: Clearwater, KS
Hobbies: Running, biking, swimming, rock climbing, playing guitar, writing poetry, blogging
Gender: F
Strengths: I am very cerebral as an athlete (and as a person), so I tend to get really in-depth when it comes to my training (although what triathlete doesn't?). So if you need an aspect of your training explained to you in great detail and with great clarity, I'm your woman :-)
