Talk about multi- tasking. A hero in Florida yesterday saved a man’s life … then promptly hopped back on her bike and finished the triathlon she was competing in. Teresa McCoy, a 37-year-old nurse, saw a man on the ground during their triathlon, McCoy stopped and checked for a pulse. "I didn't feel one at all," she tells the St. Petersburg Times. "He wasn't looking good." She started CPR and asked for a defibrillator. "As soon as we shocked him, he came to," she says. As he was being loaded into the ambulance, McCoy resumed the race, and was happy to learn after finishing that the man survived and is expected to recover.
