My Triathlon Journey

I did my first triathlon in summer 2025 at my sister Anne’s urging, after attending for two summers to cheer her on. I loved swimming and biking with her, like when we were kids - but even more, I loved the energy of the positive, inclusive crowd. Participants cheered each other on no matter our ages, sizes, or experience levels. This triathlon showed me what we can help one another do at a time when we’re looking for connection and community. I’m doing it again to be with my sister in this great city which is leading the nation in showing what community means!!

Description

YWCA Minneapolis hosts one of the largest and best women's races in the country. But they also host:

  • Award-winning Early Childhood Education programs at five centers across the metro;
  • One of the largest offerings of after-school and summer programs in Minnesota;
  • A workforce development program to train and retain the next generation of credentialed Early Childhood educators;
  • A Health and Wellness facility where over 8,000 community members find challenge and connection.

This work is vital, far-reaching, and more crucial now than ever. Can you support my Tri journey and chip in $25, $100, or $500 to power us forward? No amount is too small to make a difference.
