Jennifer Lopez Gives Tips on Triathlon Training

Jennifer Lopez is known to the world as many things — a singer, actress, designer and entrepreneur — but six months after adding "mother" to that list, the 39-year-old is taking on yet another daunting challenge.

Putting such passion and drive into every aspect of her life, from her family to her career and now athletics, is one reason Self Magazine recently named Lopez its most inspiring woman of the year.

Here is what Lopez told at Good Morning America:

It came up when I was eight months pregnant, when I was beached like a whale. I was watching TV, and I saw a triathlon and I said, 'I think I could do that.' ... Maybe we could raise some money and do something really great.

She may not have had the tight body she had during her “Jenny From the Block” days, but homegirl is still looking fly for having had a set of twins not too long ago.
