What do you enjoy about Team Kman: The People!! There is a positive energy that is infectious. The Team Parties are the best! Thanks Keith & Robyn!  I love the friends I've made, the 6 am workouts, team meetings, Kass... With so many teammates participating in different races and challenges, there is always someone to train (or commiserate) with. Since I am a beginner, there is also plenty of encouragement, coaching, and good advice on how to grow stronger and faster.
Other interests/hobbies: I enjoy playing tennis, running with my dog, Saturday naps, reading, and watching my kids in their events.
Favorite Place(s): Maui, Santa Barbara, home, Monterey, Seattle, San Francisco, New Hampshire.
A Goal(s): I would like to run and swim faster, and get more comfortable riding a road bike.
Brag Box: My tennis partner and I won a doubles tournament last year in Sana Barbara. I completed the 75 x 100's meter swim in under 4 hours (woo-hoo!!!)
Other Cool Tidbits..
I coach a youth tennis team in Atascadero.
Mike and I met in college (in the dorms) and have been married since 1983.
Ask Mike about his college nickname.
In closing...Because of Team Kman, I am more confident in my abilities and have made friends that I'm certain will last a lifetime!
