"The endurance athlete shows
the world that the boundaries and limitations of what we once thought
existed, don't... Except beyond the realm where we can not
dream. And for that reason, when we do an endurance event, we do it
not just for ourselves, but for those around us, in hopes that they too
will have a dream." -unknown

Swim 1.5K, bike 40 more and then run 10K. For non-swimmer
Valicity "Visa" Lattimore, who hadn't ridden a bike for
years, it seemed impossible. Yet she completed her first
Olympic-distance triathlon after training with TNT for just
15 weeks. The inspiration? Her son, William, now 9 years
old, an acute lymphocytic leukemia survivor who says he's
"thankful to be alive" and thankful to mom and everyone who
participates in Team In Training.
