We're so glad you asked! To put it in its simplest form, a Tri It For Life athlete is a woman who has little-to-no experience with triathlons who has registered with one of Tri It For Life's six Chapters as an Athlete. From there, she will be mentored by and train alongside other women in order to complete a women-only triathlon—but it's so much more than that.
Tri It For Life Athletes can join us with minimal experience with swimming, running, or riding a bike, and we mentor them, build up their confidence, and equip them with the knowledge they need in order to succeed. We do not expect Athletes to come to us with any experience, knowledge, or special skill-set relating to triathlons. Our goal is to encourage our Athletes to train their bodies, find self-confidence, and bond in sisterhood. We seek to empower our Athletes and inspire them to TRI!
