I’m glad I finally got out to do this race because it was a good one. With a huge crowd on course that consisted of a majority of my sponsors – BMC, Skins, ISM, and Shimano – as well as other industry folks, athletes not racing, athletes who were racing but dropped out, and lots […]

Apologies to anyone who regularly visits this site (mom?) for having to look at that awful picture of my severely swollen ankle that I posted back in October. Fortunately my ankle no longer looks like that. Here is a more pleasing picture featuring Otay Lake and the mountains surrounding my current training location in Chula
After breaking my ankle a couple of weeks ago I obviously had to close the books on the 2013 season. I was out for a morning jog in Orlando and tripped over a curb, turning my ankle pretty bad in the process. The final verdict was that I tore a ligament away from the bone

First, Rev3 Williamsburg: It’s been two weeks since this race happened and I’m just getting around to posting about it, so as you might imagine it was a disappointing race. I had an OK swim, exiting the water a minute down from Kyle Leto and eventual race winner Eric Limkemann. In the first few miles

I came into Rev3 Quassy thinking I already raced the hardest half distance course on my race schedule at St. George. But I was wrong. Quassy is definitely a more difficult course. The cycling courses are comparable but the run course is where Rev3 ups the ante. St. George ran us up Red Hills Pkwy,
My second place at St. George certainly generated a lot of different reactions – long time supporters congratulated me, old friends contacted me with nice messages, others still said “Kevin who?” But I’m sure not everyone was convinced, and to a certain extent I was part of this group. For me Florida 70.3 became the
