Not only is she racing the Ironman, she is raising money for Multiple Sclerosis – please visit her site at http://my.e2rm.com/personalPage.aspx?registrationID=636663&langPref=en-CA to learn more about Jenny and also make a donation to her campaign.

You can follow her progress on Sunday at www.ironmanusa.com/ or www.ironmanlive.com.

Best of Luck Jenny – we know you will make it!!!
