Every year I hope for great results in training and racing. I put my hear and soul into triathlon and it’s disappointing we I don’t perform as well as I expect to. Last year I raced well and had some great results, but I also had much adversity. My first DNF and then a string…
Welcome back, fellow triathlon enthusiasts! Today, I have an exciting race recap to share from my recent experience at the IRONMAN 70.3 Triathlon Race in Oceanside, California. I had high hopes for this race, but as the saying goes, “not all races are created equal.” Let’s dive into my eventful day on the course and…
I love triathlon. I put my heart and soul into the training, and I get so many things as a result. I challenge myself, I say fit and healthy, and I learn that I’m able to accomplish hard things. While I dream of being one of the best, I’m realistic and I know my limitations….
2021 was an amazing season. I saw some things in myself that I didn’t expect. I worked hard and I got great results. But I wanted more. Especially after qualifying for the 70.3 World Championship at Boulder. Not taking the spot weighted heavy on me. But it wasn’t the right timing. Enter IRONMAN 70.3 Indian…
Steamboat, Colorado is one of those quintessential mountain towns. I have memories spending summers there as a child and have been lucky to have the opportunity to spend a lot of time there as an adult. When I first heard about the Steamboat Lake Triathlon way back in 2016 I knew I had to do…
This is the third year that I’ve raced IRONMAN 70.3 Boulder. Each year the course has been a little different, but always at the Boulder reservoir. Originally I signed up in 2019 and planed to race in 2020 but when the race was canceled due to COVID-19, I deferred to the 2021 race. It’s local…
The Beast they call it, the long distance triathlon at the Boulder Tri, that’s what I signed up for back in early 2020. I had good luck at this race. In 2018 I took first place in my age group on it’s inaugural run. This year, I had a heavy schedule and a long race…
IRONMAN Coeur d’Alene did not disappoint. After a crazy year away from real racing we are back! But the IRONMAN Coeur d’Alene story really starts with IRONMAN St. George. You see, this is the race I originally signed up for, and I trained for this race twice! The fist time it got pushed back and…
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…
