Life

Kristen swims, bikes, and runs. Sometimes not in that order. She enjoys volunteering for various charities. She also really enjoys planning and organizing special events for family and friends (ask her about the BEST 40TH birthday party ever). She is an adventurer as well as a world traveler. Kristen dances like no one is watching and sings like no one is listening. She blogs about recovering from an injury that nearly left her without the lower portion of her right leg and training for an Ironman triathlon. Kristen is a student of life.
