Part 3 of 3









And now the best for last....the 2010 USAT National Club Championship

If the USAT offered Cliffs Notes, you'd read that Full Throttle "whooped it." What I'm about to break down for you is the fact that this TEAM race symbolizes (likely not shockingly) what our TEAM represents: Togetherness, Enthusiasm, Aptitude and Mentorship.

Each season, athletes grow, get injured, take time off, excel, podium, PR, DNF, surprise themselves, "dig deep"-errrr than they thought they could, are disappointed, inspired and even quit. How can all of those drastically different, heightened experiences circle around triathletes cut from the same FTE cloth? All but the latter come to fruition at TEAM Nationals.

We're Together: something that brings out the best in us.

We're Enthusiastic: we're as competitive with others and our teammates as we are supportive of them (ish).

We have an Aptitude: for excellence and nurturing.

We are Mentors: NUF said.

(Oh yeah, and we won.)
