Welcome!

Welcome to Trish's blog page Tri4Wellness! Thank you for your interest in my journey. I am dedicated to my campaign for Team Diabetes, raising funds (once again) for the Canadian Diabetes Association, participating in the Bluenose 10K, on May 23, 2010!
Please take some time to learn about my sister's story - she's the reason I have embarked on this tremendous journey. :) I will also share a bit of my story too. I hope you feel compelled to support us and this worthy cause!

Why "Tri 4 Wellness"? When anyone asks me why I run, my response is always: "for me, for wellness, for overall well being." After I started running three years ago, I decided if I could get back a fitter lifestyle, then why not go for it all! I used to run, cycle and swim regularly. I never did triathlon though. However, I'm a little more goal-oriented than I once was though, so triathlon it is! Running, cycling, swimming, walking and yoga are my regular activities for wellness. The races are a fun way to join up with other like-minded nuts. ;)
