Lindsay Brown's Background

C3C Lindsay Brown was a Cadet in Sqadron FIVE and an Intercollegiate swimmer.   She was also a member of the USAFA Competitive Triathlon Team.  Cadet Brown was killed in a car accident in Florida on Dec. 21, 2007, only four days after she returned home on Leave. She will forever be missed by hundreds of teammates and friends at the Academy. Lindsay lived everyday to the fullest and never had any regrets.  She was reading a book at the time of her death in which she wrote a quite while taking notes.  She wrote, "It's time to get out of my seat and get going!" That quote shows her determination and will to try new things.  It is only fitting that there be an opportunity for many other people to try a new thing in her honor: completing a triathlon. 

All proceeds from the Lindsay Brown Memorial Triathlon will be donated to the Rando Fund.
