At an early age they enjoyed running cross country but traded it for something more creative in their early teens. Rach rediscovered a love for endurance sports in their late 20's, finding early success in the marathon. Then, with the encouragement of a mentor, they began training to become an elite triathlete, turned pro and never looked back.
