TW: mildly graphic stitches removal + wound footage – This week’s video is a little different from most, as this week was much different from any week we’ve ever had. The dermatologist identified basal cell carcinoma, a form of skin cancer, in a small bump on Jenna’s face last month. She scheduled a Mohs Surgery for last Tuesday and had stitches put in on Wednesday morning. Not shown in this video: 99% of the tears and hardship of the last few weeks/month, but we knew we wanted to document at least a little bit of what went on. We as triathletes (and California-raised swimmers) have spent and continue to spend so much time in the sunshine, so we felt like our fellow outdoor athletes should know this story too. Our PSA: Wear your SPF 100+ sunscreen (mineral ideally), slap on a hat and sunglasses, and go to the dermatologist to get your skin checked regularly. We’ll be back with non-surgery-related content soon. The season is just getting started.
Our coach: Conrad Goeringer – Working Triathlete – mention "Freestyle Tri" to get started with a free consultation and no-charge setup

ABOUT US
We’re Jenna and Miguel–
With humble roots as college swimmers and academics, we’ve worked hard to become two of the country’s leading age-group triathletes, and are now on a mission to become professional athletes and content gurus. We swim-bike-run together, eat together, sleep together, do actual work next to each other, and make videos together for our own enjoyment and (someone’s?) education.
Throughout our documented journey, watch how a couple of ambitious 20-something-year-olds work towards their ultimate life goals in a disciplined yet untraditional, not-so-serious manner.
