Heather, known affectionately as “mantis” for her long limbs an unconscious habit of cocking her wrists while running, broke into the sport of triathlon in 2006. She was a varsity rower for the University of British Columbia and started competing in adventure races and triathlons while completing a M.Sc. at the University of Victoria. After putting a Ph.D. in developmental genetics on hold, she won the Canadian Long Course Championships and the overall age group title at her first Ironman in Coeur d’Alene; the races just one week apart from one another! This qualified her for the Hawaii Ironman World Championships where her and her husband Trevor raced during their honeymoon.

Heather’s career as a professional triathlete started out with a bang. Her most recent success was a podium finish at the inaugural Ironman 70.3 Boise. We are looking forward to her continued success as she pursues her dream to be an Ironman World Champion.
