Leininger has been competing in triathlons for 18 months and is currently running cross country for FEAST under coach Mark Jones and is also working with Kenny Dirkson with Celerity Runners.
Under Jones and Dirkson, s h e has made huge improvements in her running. Leininger said this was the first year in her training she has had a team to push her, which has helped her tremendously.
In every cross country race this year, Leininger has set a new personal record. She was invited to run at the McNeil Invitational Meet in Round Rock recently and had a new PR, knocking 38 seconds off her previous time.
Leininger’s next triathlon will be in a few weeks in Keller. She is planning on competing in triathlon in college.
