Name
Bethany
Age Group
I’m 33. (34 now!) I don’t know the age groups anymore it’s been so long since I last raced!
Years in the sport
I had one successful year of racing, but I’ve been training for five years.
What brought you to the sport?
I did some junior age triathlons and always wanted to get back into. I used to run and was a lifesaver at Fairhaven for a bit so I love open water swimming.
Biggest accomplishment in the sport?
Just successfully training for so long even with body issues, pregnancy and post pregnancy recovery. One day I’ll be able to race again.
How has triathlon impacted your life?
I’ve always been athletic but I relied so much on outside motivation. I always did group training, classes or one on one stuff. Triathlon has taught me how to be self motivated and to be grateful for what I can do.
Dream Goal
To be able to run and race again
Dream Race
A 70.3 in Victoria with friends and family there
Something interesting about you which most people would not know
I used to work ski seasons and was a weather reporter for Channel 7 from Mt Buller
