Triathlon

You know the girl who walked (and chatted with her friends) during the 1-mile run at school? That was me.

​

I forged my mums signature to get out of PE class 100 times.

When I finally made it to the gym in 1998, I watched, in awe, as people ran on treadmills while I lifted a few tiny dumbbells and did a few crunches.

​

Sports was never my thing and I never really cared for it until quite a while later... and even when I did in 2001 it was mainly gym/weight training. Sometimes maybe do a 15 min jog.

​

That only really changed 6 years ago when I randomly decided to run a full marathon... I trained for 8 months and when I crossed that finish line at the Dubai Marathon 2013, my life had changed. 

​

In April 2016, I decided to venture into the world of triathlon and have since then become extremely passionate about the sport, the discipline and the supportive people in the community. 

​

To date, I have completed:

• 5 Sprint distance triathlons

• 2 Olympic distance triathlons

• 2 IronMan 70.3 triathlons

• 2 full marathons

• 1 full trail marathon
