Michelle Milot

Years In The Sport

Since 2007

Sporting background: On the Crankmasters Cycling Team for the past 3 years. I ride whenever I can and when I can’t ride, I run... if Michelle tells me too!

Why I do triathlon: Because when you do exercise and you have to train everyday, it makes you feel good and you can tell people nothing will stop you when your working for God! I also want to be a role model for those who feel there is no hope. I also do it to teach myself the real meaning of discipline- forcing myself to do something even when you don’t want to is a great form of punishment. Doing triathlon also gives me power & respect!!

Triathlon Accomplishments: I have mostly taught myself how to swim and in 2009 I took 1 Hr off my time at the Sylvan lake Half Ironman from the year before!!

Triathlon Goals: To give triathlons all I got and to be an Ironman in 2010 in Penticton! I want to do Ironman Canada in 2010 in 13 hours or less.
