BACKGROUND
After a great season including a 2nd place finish at the 2008 World Championships, Sarah returned from the 2008 Beijing Olympics as one of three women competing for the United States. She had a solid performance with an 11th place finish, but has already started planning for her next Olympic Games and will be looking for a spot on the podium.
Sarah competed in her first triathlon in St. Louis, MO in June of 2003 upon college graduation and became a professional triathlete less than a year later in May, 2004.
While in college, Sarah competed in cross-country and track at the University of Tulsa, where she graduated with honors. She has a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Mathematics.
Sarah grew up in St. Louis, MO and began swimming at a very young age. She swam on the Parkway Swim Club for nine years and ran cross country and track in high school. Sarah was a Missouri high school state champion in cross country and swimming, while attending Parkway South High School.
From 2000-2004, Sarah coached 150 swimmers ages 4-18 during the summer months. She thoroughly enjoys teaching and coaching children and adults of all ages about the benefits of health and exercise, as well as teaching the skills of swimming, biking and running.
From 2003 through 2004, Sarah taught students in grades K-5th health education at Hanna Woods Elementary School.
Sarah loves to spend her free time with family and friends. She also loves to indulge in chocolate and ice cream…and the occasional pizza night. She enjoys watching movies and reading books, especially while traveling.
Sarah is involved with Autism Speaks, raising money for research and to build awareness about autism.
