Eve, the Athlete
As a youth, Eve was involved in most sports: soccer, basketball, track, and softball. She competed as a gymnast until the age of 12 and decided to use her gymnastics background to begin her 14 year activity in her chosen sport, cheerleading. Eve was fortunate enough to compete on several All-Star cheerleading squads, as well as with Texas Christian University’s Nationals Cheer Squad.
Unfortunately, the sport of cheerleading stops after college for
most, so Eve began triathlon in 2002 as part of Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team In Training program. Her first race with them was an Olympic distance at Pacific Grove, CA and she was hooked! Since then she’s done many other triathlons including Capital of Texas Olympic Triathlon, Texas State Olympic Triathlon, River Cities Sprint Triathlon, Gulf Coast Half Ironman, Redman Half Ironman. She has also completed three marathons: Dallas’ White Rock Marathon twice and Mayor's Midnight Marathon in Anchorage. Eve’s most recent accomplishment in triathlon was Ironman Brazil where she finished successfully.
Eve has recently become involved with Tae Kwon Do and mountain
biking in hopes of obtaining her black belt and participating in an
adventure race.

different sports with the hope of learning more about how to help
her clients be successful.
