I am a type 1 diabetic, marathon runner, Ironman triathlete and cyclist. I was diagnosed with diabetes on February 22nd, 2004 while in training for my seventh marathon. Since then I have been fortunate to become a member of Team Type 1, a team of elite cyclists and triathletes competing at a high level with diabetes. In 2010 I will compete as a member of the Team Type 1 Triathlon team and the Team Type 1 Race Across America team.
