Here is a little background on our two Guests:

Lesley Paterson is the current XTERRA World Champion and one of the toughest chicks you’ll ever meet, the pint sized Lesley Paterson, stands just a hair-over 5 feet tall.  But don’t let her small stature fool you, known as “The Scottish Rocket” by fans and media, Paterson fears nothing and packs the heart of a lion in that little frame.  With her thick Scottish accent, she is animated, honest, and never afraid to tell it like it is.  Paterson also sports an impressive resume, with major wins to her name, in both on-road Ironman 70.3 racing, and off-road Xterra racing.  Paterson also has a softer side though, seen in the thought, care, and dedication she has for the athletes she coaches under the “Braveheart Coaching“ company she started a few years ago.  Pair that with owning her own film production company with a movie in the works, the loud-laughing, boisterous Paterson is one of the hardest-working people you’ll meet.


HEATHER JACKSON
After playing ice hockey with the boys from age 6 until high school, followed by four years on Princeton’s Division 1 women’s team, as well as many summers spent training in Lake Placid, NY with the US National Team program, Heather Jackson shifted her athletic focus from ice hockey to the sport of triathlon in 2007.  Raised in a blue-collar, hard-working family, Jackson is a tough competitor with no patience for excuses.  In her first full season as an 18-24 year old amateur triathlete, Jackson qualified for and won the Ironman World Championships in Kona in her age group.  She turned pro at the end of 2009 and through hard work and her aggressive racing style, Jackson has caught the eye of the media and gained an impressive fan base that is addicted to her positive outlook and infectious smile.  At just 27 years of age and only 4 years in the sport, the sky is the limit for this young and exciting phenom. Jackson has just begun her journey in the sport of triathlon and who knows how this story will end, but I guarantee it will be special.
