Our Tri-Girl...

When I got the notice that the school was starting a Triathlon Training Club for the upcoming children’s triathlon in Holland, I suggested to Veronica that she sign up. She wasn’t really interested, but after some gentle persuasion, she agreed to try it. She was the only girl amongst 12 boys and she really liked it (and not just because she was surrounded by boys). It was too cold to actually train in the lake, so they concentrated on the bike, run and transitions for the six weeks. Veronica was very excited and a bit nervous when we arrived to check in for the race on June 11th, she got her number and entered the heat.
