On June 1, Kim Chinquee, associate professor of English, completed the IRONMAN 70.3 Tours Metropole in Loire Valley, France, which involves a 1.2-mile swim in the Chez River, a 56-mile bike along medieval and Renaissance castle estates, and a 13.1-mile run through the valley's parks and riverside paths. One of Chinquee's current projects involves writing a book based on her life as an athlete, growing up on a dairy farm, serving in the military, and her experience during the Boston Bombings in 2013.
