Stacy McKinney
Social Coordinator & FitTrac Ambassador
I have always been an active person whether it’s playing team sports or doing step aerobics at the gym. I decided I needed to do something big for my 40th birthday, like run a marathon. I joined DRC running club and ran my first marathon in 2009. A few months later a friend talked me into doing the MS150 so I bought my first road bike, trained about a month and completed the MS150. Another friend said I should do a triathlon, but I was not a great swimmer. So, I took the swim basic class with DAM, Dallas Aquatic Masters, and signed up for my first sprint triathlon. From there I was hooked! I have since done a few sprints and Olympic distance races. I have also done two half Ironman events and I am currently training for my third in September. I am training for the 2012 Ironman Florida. The best part of doing all this is all the great friends I have made along the way. I meet several new friends each week and just love it.
