Bartlett triathlon represented Becca’s one year anniversary in this sport. Her progress in this sport has been remarkable. Started from the bottom… And now she’s here. Boston Marathon training has been tough and trying to maintain bike and swim fitness has been a challenge. Becca used Bartlett race week as a period to recover a […]
YMCA Sprint – Jeffrey’s First OA Win!
Jeffrey has been one of my most loyal, dedicated clients for the past several years. Like any veteran of this sport, he has experienced the highs and lows of triathlon. He has persevered through injuries, sicknesses, races that did not meet his expectations, and a hectic work and family schedule… yet still finds the time […]
Snickers Half Marathon – Kim 2nd AG!
Juggling a busy family and work life and training for an Ironman can be very daunting. However, it can be done with success with the proper training and periodization throughout the year. Kim has managed to train very effectively, while still being an amazing mother and wife (her husband is also a hardcore Ironman triathlete!). […]
Becca – Cool Runnings at the Phoenix Half
Feel the Rhythm! Feel the Rhyme! Get on up! It’s sub 1:30 Marathon Time! – My race morning pep talk In honor of the Winter Olympics, Becca’s race was based on the movie Cool Runnings. Much like the Jamaican bobsled team, Becca has been a dark horse in her early triathlon career. She has shown […]
Becca – Queen of Fistman
Training is in full swing for Becca. She is preparing for the Boston Marathon in April and doing her inaugural Ironman in Whistler. Becca reminds me a lot of my work ethic and willingness to be the best she can be. The progress she has made in just over a year in triathlon is incredible. […]

Phoenix Marathon 2017 – 2:44:59.69
I ended last season burnt-out, drained, and mentally checked out. I got caught up in “Kona chasing” and it really got to my head when I did not qualify on multiple attempts. I quit training completely for two months- zero physical activity and contemplated hanging up the cleats for good. I chatted with George Gage, […]
Flagstaff Traincation
This past weekend I hosted a Peak Tri Coaching / ONE Multisport training camp in Flagstaff. It gave us the opportunity to escape the 120-degree heat wave in Phoenix and train in slightly cooler weather at elevation. The camp was full of laughter, pedicures, pickle juice drinking contests, pizza eating, delicious desserts, David Tindall beatdowns, lengthy […]
Deuces Wild 70.3: The Hunted
Rewind to last April at the Bartlett Lake Olympic triathlon- I gapped my #1 trash talker, Adam Folts, on the bike by six minutes and he almost caught me on the 10k run. After the near embarrassment, I really focused on my run and lost some of my baby fat. His trash talk began early and often for […]
When It’s Game Time, It’s Pain Time!
As IM Canada (Whistler) looms, Ellie has decided to get serious. Some updates: My buddy, Russ Brandt, and I recently visited the wind tunnel at Faster in Scottsdale. I made a few position changes, changed some of my gear, ditched the baggy clothing, and now I’m pretty much pro. Thanks, Russ! 😉 In March, I got annihilated […]
