The Triathlon that Didn’t Happen

Last summer it was a goal of mine to do an Olympic distance triathlon this summer. The Lake St. Louis Triathlon is the closest one to me, so I kept a watch on it knowing that it has filled up quickly in the past. When the information about it was released, there was a change […]
