I did my first triathlon in 2004, and after 4 years off completed 4 sprint triathlons in 2008. I am training for the olympic distance race in 2009. My husband Michael and I have been married for over 17 years, and we have two girls, Emily (14) and Molly (10) and a St. Bernard, Maggie (4). I am the Director of Product Management (purchasing & design) for a dinnerware company based in Sterling VA.
