About Lynne
“We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.”
— George Bernard Shaw

Why I Stand Out From the Crowd
As a lifelong endurance athlete with the dual goal of training and racing until my bones turn to dust, I relish sharing that passion with everyone I meet. I’ve spent over three decades learning about training, recovery, and nutrition.
This zeal and dedication manifested itself in almost every professional endeavour, from the Women’s Sports Foundation, ABC Sports, ESPN and Oxygen Media. More recently, I shared my passion for triathlons as a coach and co-founder of Team Training New England, a regional triathlon training program for beginners. Later, I became the co-founder of Imagine Float, a boutique flotation and wellness center offering float therapy, cryotherapy, infrared sauna, compression therapy and other recovery and wellness modalities. Finally, I’m proud to be a co-founder of breathe, a women’s retreat in New Hampshire.
I live with my family in West Hartford, CT. I currently serve as a Board Member of Capitol Squash in Hartford, CT. I’m also a regular volunteer for Dignity Grows, a non-profit empowering those in need with free comprehensive menstrual hygiene supplies.
Through it all, I have used my unique skills of organization and the ability to see the big picture to help bring a project or passion to completion.
