Austin 70.3

I pulled off a second place finish this past weekend at Austin 70.3. Between the swim and bike Chris Kemp and I gained 4.5 minutes on the rest of the field going out onto the run, but Chris had the better run legs on the day. Only one more race left this season – Challenge […]

Challenge Rancho

I won something! It feels great to finally get a W at a half-distance race, or any triathlon race at all for that matter, as my last professional win was over five years ago at the Playas Continental Cup in Ecuador (2009). Lots of second places, thirds, fifths, and sixths, and yes there is the

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

Rev3 Branson

Rev3 Branson was my third and final race in a big September of racing. With a lot of fitness still in the bank from the HyVee/Vegas block, it was just a matter of staying sharp in the lead up to my third Rev3 race of the year. With cold air temperatures (45F) greeting us on
