Why would anyone do a triathlon? There are plenty of benefits to training and racing for triathlon. Here are a few fun reasons to tri!
Triathlon got bumped down my priority list last year, mostly because I was busy settling into the next chapter of my life: I moved from Tampa, FL back home to South Florida, got a new job, and was fortunate enough to buy my first home.
I ESCAPED. The Escape from Alcatraz triathlon in San Francisco was extremely challenging and insane, but also beautiful with its views and so much fun! The notoriety and history of Alcatraz Island have made this event a bucket list race for triathletes all over the world. This race is by far my favorite triathlon and definitely goes into the top moments of my life thus far.
6 days are what separate me from my biggest race this year and an experience of a lifetime. The swim from Alcatraz Island to land and the bike/run through the San Francisco streets will not be easy, but it's a dream race for me and something I've been looking forward to for almost one year.
