Professional/Personal Overview
  Health, fitness, sports and travel topics get my adrenaline flowing. I'm the co-author of an inspirational book on triathlon training for women and an experienced writer and editor. I love collaborating, so contact me if you'd like talk about a book.

I've written for magazines, newspapers, online and corporate communication publications. I've covered stories on keeping your gym bag clean and running for therapy, to complex medical issues such as the latest in neurosurgery, cancer and Alzheimer's. I have a proven track record of on time deliveries that fit the tone of the publication. For more information, please visit my website: www.betsynoxon.com. and www.trithejourney.com
