  TRIATHLONS
 

I did my first triathlon in late 1998, a sprint distance event called the Tucson Tinfoilman. It consisted of an 825-yard swim, a 12-mile bike, and a 3.1-mile run. Like my first skating competition, I was hooked. Had to have more. I was endurance addicted. I’ve since moved to Colorado to train with 2001 ITU World Champion Siri Lindley, and I’ve got my sights set on turning pro someday. I’ve got my work cut out for me. A lot of pro triathletes grow up swimming or running, and have a pretty solid background in those sports. I will do my best to intimidate competitors by threatening them with sneak attack double axels.
