get to know: Ann Garvin, Training Captain

Be sure to check out the information on this weekend’s TWO coached workouts … times and directions available in the top box of the right column.

Where do you live?: San Jose

Home Team: Family & Friends

Hometown: Manhattan Beach, CA (where my heart will always be) [Ed. note: Amen!]

Motivation: Honorees, dreams, friends & family, health, fun, and finding a cure for cancer

Honoree(s): All those who have and unfortunately will fight cancer. All my TNT Team Honorees since 1999, those still with us and those we’ve lost — They’ve all touched my heart and changed my life. And, of course, my uncles.

Favorite tri gadget(s): Aero Bars & Bike Computer

Last three books read: Breaking Back, A Child Called It, My Sister’s Keeper

Last three movies seen: Running with Scissors, The Departed, The Brave One

What person do you look up to the most and why? My Mom — She has a deep faith I strive to emulate, is kind, caring, selfless, intelligent, forgiving, loving, and, simply put, the most amazing women I’ve ever known. Also my youngest nephew — He’s so young and already gone though so much in his life & kept a good attitude and his sense of humor!

Favorite local cheap-eats restaurant: Falafel’s Drive-In (yes, it’s with an ’s, which makes it that much cooler!)

Desert Island Five: The Bible, a soccer ball, running shoes, my iPhone (gets me music, videos & pictures of family & friends, and maybe Wifi), and the quilt my Mom and I made together when I was a child

What did you want to be when you grew up? A professional soccer player, a teacher, an actress, a singer, a lifeguard

Middle name meme:
Evolving; at least I hope so
Inversus; ask me if your curious

Lively; especially on the dance floor
Emotional; often overly so
Endurance; every triathlete possesses this quality
Noisy; I’ve been told my voice carries
