"I started training with a triathlon club because I knew that they had access to a stretch of river near where I lived. And so, I did pool training with them over the winter and then in the spring, we went down to the river. I remember swimming this 2K stretch river and thinking, ok, cool, this is it.

It was just a pleasure and I was able to do it and I felt so proud and accomplished and I'd never had that before. I'd never felt pride and accomplishment from doing physical exercise before in my entire life."
