You guys are wonderful. This group is a fantastic idea and a fabulous group of women. What a joy. Wish I could go on every trip, but will do as many as I can. Thank you for thinking of this, and for all you do for everyone. ~Jingles
It was a fabulous day! It is so wonderful to provide an opportunity for women to challenge themselves with an event such as this in a non-threatening way. I love being able to say "I did a triathlon!" The event was very thought-out, prepared-for and organized. Kudos to Carol and team! ~Jackie

I felt energized and invigorated for days after. I know Ive thanked you for putting the triathlon together, but it was really fabulous. Even my husband continues to step aside to let me pass; I tell him he no longer needs to bow when I enter the room. ~Margaret M.

I want to thank you so much for the opportunity we all had yesterday to test our strength and our abilities to hike, kayak, and bike in four hours or less. We all were pleased with testing ourselves and that we did pretty well. There was such a sense of fellowship; we were all cheering for each other. It was a day we will all remember. ~Peg
