Dear Karen,
If I had to pick one word to sum up 2021, it's resilience. We navigated so many twists and turns together, from maintaining connection through lockdowns, celebrating the return to in-person workouts and races to pulling back once again with a year-end surge of the virus.
Though this has been another challenging year, it is one to celebrate. I want to take this moment to celebrate YOU. You raced. You volunteered. You donated. You followed. You trained and smiled in the heat, the rain, the cold, the pandemic. If your event was canceled or travel was not possible, you went outside and just made your own. You learned how to steer a handcycle. You pushed someone else up the hill and made a new friend. When 26.2 miles felt too "easy," you took it up a notch further and tried a triathlon for the first time. You turned a computer screen into a virtual dance party.
