How did you get started? My dad is a road runner and I always went with him to his events. At all of his events there were 5k fun runs. I eventually started running them while he did his races. I had always swam for fun as a kid, although I was never fast enough to make a swim team. And I have a cousin that used to cycle. I would do a few fun cycle events with him, but was never good enough.I was real chubby as a kid. My mom used to call me her little blubber whale. My family moved from Johannesburg to Cape Town in 93’ I found a new swim team and the swim teacher was the South African female Triathlon champ. She got me to do my first tri at the age of 14…I did the Tri and took 14th.
