Heather Chenette - Vice-President
Year at Clemson: 3rd - graduate student
2011-2012 Goals: Academic success. Personal bests. Have fun!
Years in triathlon: 6 (first off-road sprint in 2005)
Multisport events: 15 (6 sprints, 8 olympics, 1 half; all triathlons, in 7 different states!)

Athletic Background: Heather grew up swimming in Tempe, AZ, and went on to swim for Claremont-Mudd-Scripps DIII team in college. She's always valued a multi-sport lifestyle, enjoying distance running, hiking and mountain biking when she gets a chance. It wasn't until she randomly did her first triathlon (Lake Thunderbird Sprint in Norman, OK) one summer did her love for triathlon really start. Before joining Clemson's team in Fall 2009, she hadn't done more than one or two a each year, but now she competes regularly and enjoys encouraging others to try their first tri.
