At the finish line with the sexy man that is my inspiration, Chad Russell. Together his team of Georgetown law students raised over $800 for MetroTeenAIDS.
On Saturday April 8th, 2006 came together the culmination of several months of my hard work -- the 2006 IronMed Charity Triathlon & 10K Run. On this cold and rainy morning, over 110 athletes and 30 volunteers showed up at sunrise to take part in what was a very memorable event that raised over $11,000 for MetroTeenAIDS, a nonprofit organization centered in southeast Washington, D.C. that focuses on preventing new HIV infections in the youth of our capitol. Despite the weather, we managed to have a great time - not too hard to do when you are running around in a Speedo all day!
I made major improvements in my triathlon performance over last year. I swam the 1000 meters this year in 17:34, biked 15.7 miles in 1:04:00, and ran 6.2 miles in 45:01 -- finishing the event in 2:06:35, more than 14 minutes faster than my time last year.
