Gotta Brag...
To disable ads, please log-in.
I've been a part of the tri newbies online gang for a few years now, and yesterday one of our fellow TNO'ers WON the womens race at IMLP!! Yeah, there were no pro women there, but she was OA female winner!!!
You can see her pic here: (scroll down)

She is quite an inspiration. And I think mostly because she just quietly goes out and kicks butt at her races, but is totally humble about it. She gives me hope that with some hard work and clean living that even *I* can become a better, faster, stronger athlete. She's the "every girl" that went out and KICKED BUTT at IMLP!!!!
Just so proud of her I had to brag!!

I think after you win an IM, (or complete one for that matter!!!) you cease to be a tri-newby!!
