Betty Peterson

Betty spent most of her life in Southern California before moving to Tucson in 1994.  A friend looking to lose baby weight asked others to join her in training for a triathlon.  Being an average swimmer in high school and the occasional runner, it sounded like fun. Betty’s first sprint race was in July of 1999.  Most of her racing is for motivation to train and to keep genetics at bay.  In 2003 she set the goal to complete her first full Ironman distance race by January of 2010, when she would turn 50.  Over the next 7 years she balanced family, volunteer time and training.  In 2008 she began working for TriSports.com; can’t get much more motivated at work than that!  In January of 2009, Betty began working with Bill Daniels, who helped her reach her Ironman goal in Coeur d’ Alene, Idaho this past June.  While not particularly speedy, Betty finds joy in the accomplishment.  Her next big race is the 2010 CA 70.3 and she is currently working on increasing her speed and strength to improve on her 2006 finish at Ironman CA.
