Victoria Stagg Elliott is a writer in Chicago. She has competed in two marathons, one half-ironman triathlon and a stair-climbing race to the top of the Sears (now Willis) tower. She has two gold medals in figure skating and a bronze in swimming from the Gay Games.
My friends call me an exercise tourist because I love running, biking, swimming, triathlons, skiing, pretty much physical activity of any kind, but last year I crossed a line.
