While earning a bachelor’s degree from Texas Tech, Pattie fell in love with endurance training and began competing in 5Ks. Once she graduated and moved to Austin, she decided to try her hand at longer distances, running a half-marathon before deciding to ride in the 1998 Tanqueray AIDS Ride (Austin-to-Houston-to-Dallas/575-miles).
Shortly thereafter she suffered a shoulder injury and decided to focus most of her energy on strength training. Since that time, in addition to two marathons and countless century rides, she has competed in several powerlifting meets and bodybuilding shows.
