Meet the triathlete who just happens to be transgender and deaf
Briefly

My coach and I had been working together week by week adjusting the training load. It was successful because I escaped. I enjoyed kicking ass on Alcatraz's tough course.
I grew up playing soccer, and I joined the U.S. deaf women's soccer team in 2004 and played in two Deaflympics in 2005 and 2009 and won three gold medals. I also played in one deaf World Cup in 2012.
I've run 10 marathons, over 30 half-marathons, and recently completed my first 50k in February on my birthday. In 2019, I moved on to triathlons. I love finding new challenges.
Since I have hearing issues, I'm always curious about how others became deaf. 'I was born completely deaf,' Romano told me.
