A little about Beth

By day I am an investment consultant, having started my career in finance in the late 90s.  During a 12-year hiatus from the finance world (2004-2016), I spent a decade coaching triathlon and teaching fitness classes.  While I am back to my finance career, I have never let up on triathlon.  
My first triathlon was the first annual Ballwin Triathlon in 1999, and after winning my age group, I was hooked!  I have multiple long-distance and sprint events under my belt, usually with top three age group or overall wins.  But the accomplishment I am most proud of is completing the 309-mile MFER ride – a grassroots bike ride from Columbia, IL to the Kentucky border, and back – as the only female in a team of 5, averaging nearly 20 mph.  Cycling is my passion!  In my free time, I love long distance rides (road, gravel or mountain) with my husband, Justin Bowen, along new and interesting off-the-beaten path routes.  Together we also enjoy snowsports(him snowboard and me ski), travel and hiking with our family (6 kids!!!).
