I was excited to get back to racing and the Colorado Triathlon was really the prefect race for me to jump into. While other distances were offered I was signed up for the Sprint because of the series they offer, even though I ended up changing that because our vacation to Maui was the same…
IRONMAN Arizona was my third full IRONMAN distance race. I had originally planed to race in back in 2018, but deferred it to 2019 because we were moving into the new house. This entire season had it’s ups and downs and I was left feeling undertrained and not ready for a full IRONMAN. But this…
IRONMAN 70.3 Waco was a late addition to this year’s race roster. I wanted to squeeze in a 70.3 in my final build to IRONMAN Arizona, and Waco was a good fit. Not only was the time perfect, but we were able to visit family in Texas at the same time. We flew into Dallas…
I decided to give the Boulder Sunset Triathlon another go this year. I’ve done this race a number of times and it was my first podium in an Olympic distance race. It’s a familiar course and I had high expectations going into the race. I originally hadn’t planed on doing this race, but added to…
IRONMAN 70.3 Canada The results from IRONMAN 70.3 Canada have left me uneasy, unsure, and underwhelmed. It wan’t a bad race, and I can’t say it was a good race. The hard part is to see the result as my slowest IRONMAN 70.3 to date. However, it was a challenging corse. First off, Whistler was…
This was my first year competing the Boulder Peak Triathlon. I had been looking forward to this race since it has a slightly different course than the standard Boulder triathlons. It’s usually the same weekend as the Triple Bypass, which I’ve opted to participate in the past years. The night before the Boulder Peak Triathlon,…
This was my second year racing the Colorado Triathlon sprint distance race, but it’s been a couple years since I’ve done this race. Other than run by a different company, it’s about the same as all the other Boulder Reservoir races. Despite having a good performance, I did not have the race I wanted. I’ve…
I was really looking forward to racing at IRONMAN 70.3 Santa Cruz. I had never been to this part of California before, so I was looking forward to something new. I also love the ocean, and haven’t been since Aruba last year, so I was looking forward to the beach. My season has been an…
This was my second year competing in the USA Triathlon Age Group National Championships. Last year I drove out to Omaha, Nebraska to compete in the Olympic distance race. This year the event took place in Cleveland, Ohio, so I figured I would race both days and add the sprint distance race. Since I had to make…
This was my second year competing in the IRONMAN 70.3 Boulder race. Last year I had a great race and I was looking to improve upon that performance. It was also my third half IRONMAN distance of the season. Last year there were several issue I ran into, and this year with that knowledge in…
