Hi! My name is Emily and I live in Upstate New York with my husband, Mark, and our Golden Retriever, Trek.
I am a fitness enthusiast. I became hooked on triathlon in 2011 after spectating the Syracuse 70.3. I completed my first sprint triathlon in June 2012 and two weeks later tackled the Syracuse 70.3. Since 2012 I have completed numerous triathlons and running races. My biggest accomplishment (thus far) is completing Ironman Lake Placid in July 2015.
In 2016 I hope to race more and try new things! My focus is the 70.3 triathlon distance. I’m looking forward to improving my current personal record of 5:21. I am signed up for my first X-Terra and a swim meet. I’ll race a few shorter triathlons and running races. I plan to keep working on my mountain biking skills so I can rip up the trails with Mark.

Hi there!
I am hoping that you’re the Emily that I heard about! I am an AGD at MSU and heard that you are really into triathlons. I was a competitive swimmer from the time I was 8 until I graduated high school and did small kid triathlons growing up. I’ve been wanting to get into triathlons and eventually ironmans. If you have any advice about literally anything (I’m clueless) it would be really amazing and helpfull!
Thanks!!
Caitlin
