1 ISSUE № 30, JUNE 2018 “Push Yourself: A Triathlon Story” Jenna Ross does not hesitate to inform that she “really en- joys the sport of Triathlon as it is both a mental and physical endurance event that teaches you more than you may want to know about yourself ;and the limits you can push yourself to”. Currently in her early thirties, Jenna has already attended the University of Western On- tario, Canada so can now focus on her sport of choice which she has been doing since 2011. She is currently a member of club Slipstream, but beyond that she recently repre- sented T&T in the recent Common Wealth Games, Gold Coast, Australia 2018. She cites as her proudest moment being her Qualification for the Ironman 70.3 World Champion- ships in South Africa carded for September in 2018. Her ultimate goal sporting wise however would be qualifying for the landmark event in the sport which is the Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii. Her entry into the sport started as an item on her bucket list which came to fruition when her friend Katrina directed her to the opportunity to join Team Hope, a triathlon group that was raising funds for the Trinidad and Tobago Occupational Therapy Association.” While we raised funds we also received free training from the top coaches in triathlon and swimming. This training all led up to the Rainbow Cup International Triathlon which is held in Tobago every year. It was there I realized that I was not at all bad at the sport”. Although she professes to having a full time job and consuming a lot of coffee, she does have time to travel as the sport has thus far taken her to Tobago, Grenada, Barbados, Miami, Washington, Cozumel (Mexico) and Gold Coast (Australia). Her current goal she says is “to beat yesterday’s time!” Make a offer for all these three fantastic texts. No offer considered ridiculous. Call 620-8567 YOU WANT YOUR OWN PUBLICATION ?
