Mile 111: "Thin Blue Line" (Sponsored by Lt. KD Anthony, Houston PD)

Kristine Anthony is responsible for Mile 111!!  I met Kristine through Team In Training also and she's one of the sweetest, most genuine people I've met through the sport of triathlon.  But, don't let that fool you, she will kick your butt in triathlon! And, if you break the law, she will find you!  Kristine is also a Lieutenant with the Houston Police Department. Here is why she took mile 111:

"To date, there have been 111 HPD officers that have lost their lives in the line of duty.  I run because they no longer can.  I serve because they no longer can.  And I proudly wear this uniform because they no longer can.  It's said that law enforcement is a "thin blue line"....between right and wrong, between civility and lawlessness, protecting law abiding citizens against those who would violate those rights, etc.  So, can 111 be known as the "thin blue line" mile?"

I love it!!  Thanks so much for the support Kristine, and thanks to all those amazing police officers out there who work so hard to keep us safe everyday.  A special thanks to the 111 HPD officers who she is running in honor of!

Also, be on the lookout for Kristine on race day, because she's competing in the Texas Ironman with me!!  Go Kristine!!
