Hey @finding.forward.life, meet our employee of the month, @lexie.lombardi! She loves listening on conference calls and barking whenever people talk. She also naps through video conferences. She’s the best employee ever!

It’s been quite an exciting day today! Back on Jan. 1, I woke up and my right knee was on 🔥. I couldn’t put any weight on it, and I couldn’t bend my knee. To this day, I have no idea what happened and everyone whom I was with the night before confirmed that nothing traumatic happened to me (and it was indeed a fun NYE celebration!). I tried to run on it, but after a couple of aborted attempts I finally had to see a doctor. I was diagnosed with a meniscal tear in the non-vascular region, necessitating surgery to fix. Today was that day, but surprisingly enough the tear was mostly in the vascular region which meant a slightly different surgery and post-op. Still, I’m very happy to have it fixed and am now on the road to recovery. Hoping to be back up and #running (literally) in a couple of weeks! 🤞 Also glad that it happened early season as opposed to mid-season so I’ll still be out there racing soon! For now, it’s a ton of 🍷, 🍩, 🍦, 💊 and maybe some new kit orders from @wynrepublic so I can fit into something when I’m back into #training 😂. Thanks to @ablo319 and @lexie.lombardi for taking such good care of me today! . . . #teamwyn2020 #jointherepublic #triathlon #triathlete #triathlonworld #triathlonlife #tritraining #imtrinews #tri365 #ironman #ironmantraining #swimbikerun #nyctri #runnyc #nycrunning #cycling #sprint #olympic #worldtriathlonseries #itu #wts #helpivefallenandicantgetup

Back home in #NYC after leaving @bermuda this morning, and man what a trip! While I was sad to not race in the @bermudatrianglechallenge due to injury, the wonderful people of Bermuda helped make it an incredible trip. Special thanks to @jackbda, @nhuribashir, @bermuda_drew, and the @princessbermuda for the wonderful hospitality throughout the weekend. Extra special thanks to @hazelclarkruns for introducing me to @favorhamilton. Suzy and I spent most of the last three days with exploring and experiencing different aspects of #Bermuda for the first time, and she also introduced me to so many fantastic people. Every time I leave, I’m sad to depart but am also excited for my inevitable return. Next up, @worldtriathlonbermuda in April! . . . #gotobermuda #bermudatriangle #bermudadreaming #travellife #wanderlust #liveanadventureeveryday

Ever wonder why I love coming to @bermuda so often? Check out a couple of #drone shots I took at #admiraltybeach and #spanishpointpark. Admittedly I couldn’t fly as much as I wanted to with 25-35 mph winds, especially since I’m a beginner pilot, but I’ll try again tomorrow. 😀 . . . #gotobermuda #bermudatriangle #bermudadreaming #bermudaful #travel #wanderlust #liveanadventureeveryday

Met the incredibly inspirational @favorhamilton tonight, thanks to @hazelclarkruns! It’s quite inspiring to meet someone who owns their history and is unapologetic (as one should be!) for who they are. Looking forward to cheering Suzy on tomorrow during her third race of the weekend! . . . #bermudamarathonweekend #bermudatrianglechallenge #runhappy #runbermuda #bermuda #gotobermuda

I’ve been lucky enough to be able to #swim in some awesome #pools during my #triathlon career. This is one of them (I’m glad I wore my tinted goggles with the 🌞!). Also, forgive my inability to swim straight. 🤣 I keep forgetting to sight in a pool! . . . #teamwyn2019 #teamwyn2020 #wyntm #jointherepublic #wyninthewild #triathlon #triathlete #triathlonworld #triathlonlife #tritraining #tri365 #ironman #ironmantraining #swimbikerun #nyctri #sprint #olympic #worldtriathlonseries #itu #wts #wtsbermuda #bermuda #gotobermuda
