I take it I’ve told you about my condition? Plantar fasciitis…in both of my feet. But I’m happy to report that the injury subsided and I made a happy return to racing this past weekend, placing eighth in the San Francisco Pan American Cup! I was nowhere near race-ready, but I was newly race-able, so […]

My life on the road continues. I stayed in Boulder long enough to adapt to altitude and learn that it’s best to pay with cash at Amante and then it was back in the car and off to Paulo Sousa‘s training camp in St. George, UT. This was certainly not in my plans when I

I definitely didn’t know what I was in for on my trip out to Boulder for summer training. It all started with a short trip to Gainesville, a group ride, and a new 30″ CP followed by a surprisingly delicious Yuengling. Then I was off to Huntsville, Alabama to stay with the rocket scientist (literally)
Long ago I theorized on Twitter that when an athlete is injured he or she will generally not blog for the duration of the problem. Being a regular reader of many athlete’s blogs I noticed that sometimes a normally routine blogger would go months without an update. What am I supposed to read with my

The race this past weekend blended so well into my normal routine that I almost forgot to post about it! Other than acting as a homestay for Barrett Brandon and his wife Lauren, as well as Greg “the Future of Triathlon” Billington, I didn’t stray too far from the norm. Anyways, the race took place

Did some 200m repeats last Thursday. A text from coach reads: “Arms are too long and feet too inactive.” Felt pretty active at the time! Video credit: Marc Bonnet-Eymard More of them tomorrow! The beard is gone.
I ran a 10K PR at this past weekend’s Suncoast 10K in St. Petersburg! QOTD from Kaitlin Shiver: “I didn’t see Kevin during the race, but then I realized he was the guy with the squirrel on his face.”
