I joined BTC as a triathlon and Brooklyn newbie in 2020 right after the pandemic started, partly because I needed something to keep me sane while everything was going up in flames, and partly because I had been eyeing triathlons for a couple years. I come from a competitive running background, and I really missed the competition and camaraderie of being on a team. I actually decided on my neighborhood in Brooklyn when I moved here in 2019 because of its proximity to Prospect Park, because a friend told me a tri club trip practiced there! Since then, I’ve fallen madly in love with the sport and BTC. Outside of BTC, I spend most of my off-time with my deaf-blind rescue pup, Alfie.
