Describe a little bit about yourself and your interest in triathlon
IM LP will be my 2nd full Ironman. In 2019 I completed IM Maryland in 13:35:03 (but who's counting). I've completed four 70.3 events and really like that distance.
Started sprint triathlons in 2015. At the time I had significant issues during the swim. I would repeatedly exhaust myself. Also experienced nausea. Time in the pool has solved all those issues. I'm a competent swimmer.
