MY STORY:

Growing up Brooke did it all. She was a cheerleader, power lifter, volleyball player, golfer and a member of both cross country and track. As the oldest of three children, Brooke tries to be the best role model for her younger brother and sister to inspire them to live healthy and active lives. Brooke joined to the world of triathlons because of a New Years resolution and has not turned back. This year, Brooke will compete in her first Half Ironman and in years to come, Brooke intends to compete in a Full Ironman and Marathon. Triathlons have become such a big part of Brooke’s life that she has started compiling her race numbers into collages that she hangs around her apartment.

Being the “Queen of Excuses”, especially for 4 am swim workouts, Brooke still has the motivation improve. She loves to see herself and others break through their expectations and become mentally and physically stronger. The feeling of accomplishment makes up for early wake up calls and physically tough workouts. Brooke, being a role model to other runners and her siblings, has accomplished so many dreams but is continually striving for bigger and better ones!
