Name: Cara Christianson-Riley
Alter Ego: According to Liz, it is "Secret Lover of Running" but Liz is a bit delusional!
In reality tthere are a few: swimmer, Cheeese & Sugar-Addict, Loud Laugher, Chatty Cathy, toddler Mom,
Real Life Secret Power you’re secretly proud of (example: i am a wizard at bagging groceries ….it’s true. Grocery Tetris Master Bagger.) Don’t be shy. We all have our own special gifts.
I can pee anywhere! If I got to go, I won't be shy.
Most used motto/mantra for dealing with life:
Pick up feet then walk. This started in high school when I would trip on my own feet all the time and my basketball coach yelled at me, "Christianson, pick up feet then walk" it was a big joke for awhile but now it's just my mantra for getting through life!
What do you do for fun unrelated to triathlon (there’s life beyond triathlon?):
Prior to having Baby Bennett 16 months ago, it was traveling to National Parks. Now it is mostly trying to get outside as much as possible with Bennett. Or watching TV.
Spirit Animal: Hoping this year it is a Butterfly.
But in reality it is a seagull....loves being near water and willing to dive bomb anything/one with food!
Most unfortunate place nature has called….(if you’re new to this and you’ve never pulled over roadside to answer the emergency call of nature....welcome. Soon, you too will understand how to poo undetected in your neighbor’s yard and forgo decades of socialisation to pee yourself.)
Well I'll pee anywhere (read as: yes I pee in pools too) so I dont consider it unfortunate anymore. but as far as the other business...I'd say most unfortunate place for that was probably a cemetary!
If you were arrested with no explanation what would your family assume you had done?
Probably for peeing somewhere! lol - there seems to be a trend here...those that dont know me...I swear there is more to me that just peeing!
Main goal over the next 3 months (in addition to relentless forward progress!!):
-developing a training routine and making no excuses - try to get back to a place where I dont hate running so much
CV-19 Haiku Contest.
COVID keeps us in
Bad-assery we do have
Cookies we do eat
