I'm Azalea, race age 10.
I have been doing triathlon since I was 4 years old.
I'm excited about going to Ohio. I actually have never done an open water swim since five years ago.
Here I am.
During all my events, I have learned that even when times get tough you have to remember that it's OK not to get in first — just finish!
Remember that you can do it.
A few people who inspire me are ... Coach Kris and my mom
Heather Jackson
my brother, Hank
Thank you for reading and good luck to everyone doing Ohio!
Love,
Azalea Snell
