So turns out the the newly crowned Mrs. America (Andrea Robertson, 32) is also a triathlete. Apparently she has participated in over 50 triathlons and has even won her age group before.
Robertson hopes her beauty pageant title helps put a new face on female athletics. Her pageant platform focuses on healthy life habits, and she is an ambassador for the Women’s Sports Foundation.
“Sometimes femininity gets a little lost in athletics,” she said, noting that celebrity athletes such as Serena Williams have started to change that trend. “I think it’s cool to be athletic and still proud to be a woman.”
Well Andrea...I think it's cool too!
TODAY'S TRAINING:
50 minute spin at the gym (around 19 miles) - pushed it pretty hard, lots of intervals!
