We swim in memory of our beloved sorely missed friend Stephanie Gardner who died at the way too young age of 45 after a short, courageous struggle with cancer. Steph joined us in the pool when she began her triathlon training (and quickly outpaced many of us). Steph was a six-time iron man finisher with a national ranking in her age group. She was a remarkable woman who oozed enthusiasm, compassion and love. Steph continues to inspire us in and out of the water. We think of her when we do her workouts -- such as those wonderful split kicks and the mini pyramid. You live on in your hearts Steph!
