The Last Leg Was Hell

Fitness Six Word Photo Story: Freestyle

But I finished the damn race!

Last month, I did the Vancouver Triathlon. It was my third triathlon since I started racing last year, but I swear, it was the most fun triathlon I’ve ever done — even though running the last leg of the race hurt my feet like hell.

While this isn’t the most flattering photo of me in action, it’s raw and real.

You can read my full story below — published in Age of Empathy. That’s me in the feature photo.
