Since starting this journey, I’ve been fielding a number of questions from athletes new to the sport of triathlon who are inspired by the commitment Hines Ward and his BECOME ONE teammates have undertaken. Many of the questions are the very same ones Hines and his teammates were asking just a few short months ago.

Wow! It's hard to believe that by the end of the year I'll have put in the work, and I'll be an IRONMAN...CRAZY! I have been on an emotional roller coaster ever since I received the email letting me know that I was granted an entry to IRONMAN Arizona, courtesy of REFUEL | got chocolate milk?.

This was my SECOND half marathon for the year (more than I’d run in any year since 2009). Since I was not in the greatest place in my life, I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to compete.

2012 was quite the year of running accomplishments for me. I ran my first (and second!) 10-miler race, as well as my first half marathon. I dropped over 6 minutes in my 10K time, and almost 3 minutes in my 5K time. In 2012, I also began drinking chocolate milk after races and training runs on a regular basis and really noticed the positive results. Not only does it taste great, but it also rehydrates while providing the perfect ratio of carbs and proteins needed to rebuild muscles.

Well, Chrisann, Eric, Hines, and I have officially started training now, and so far, it has been a blast! It was so fun meeting the whole team in LA a few weeks ago (at the E-Live gala), and since then we have been encouraging each other as we train for Kona.
