J-Lo Finishes Her First Triathlon

Jennifer Lopez crossed her first finish line as a triathlete on Sunday, Sept. 14, 2008 at the Nautica Malibu Triathlon. Lopez finished in 2 hours, 23 minutes and 28 seconds.

She says training for the event felt good, but that she's never done anything so taxing in her life. Lopez worked hard to balance time with her twins, work and family life, while still fitting in workouts. She trained with SELF magazine's editor-in-chief Lucy Danziger. Read about their experience on Lopez' blog at SELF's Living Well section.

The Nautica Malibu Triathlon benefits Children's Hospital Los Angeles. Lopez raised $127,000 for the charity. More news and photos here:
