I was excited at the prospect of sharing with my twins the joys of a body in motion, but scared to death of the extreme life changes motherhood would inevitably bring. I envisioned a life where I'd lost my killer racing instinct and competitive edge-a life of sleep deprivation, low energy, and very little time for myself. But, being a mother of twin boys rocks! Tri-Mom shares the honest, raw emotions of women just like us, who have struggled and triumphed through this amazing life transition.
