Posted by TRIMORE Fitness on November 24, 2011
Just 14 short months after my first sprint triathlon, I found myself in Tempe Arizona getting ready to start my first Ironman. But it wasn’t an easy path. I learned to swim very late in life. I grew up with ear operations, and as a result of that I remember my parents telling me “Don’t [...]

Race Report Ironman Germany 2011 Summary I was 19th in my age group. One third of my age group did not even finish. It was a wet and windy day, so it was the biggest challenge I have faced for an Ironman. I PR’d the swim, then fought rain and wind to finish the bike, [...]

It took me a few weeks to finish it, but here is my race report from Wildflower 2011. This was my sixth Wildflower Long Course (I did one WF Olympic), and my second best time. So overall I was pleased. I drove to Lake San Antonio on Friday. I left my house about 2:30pm and [...]

Posted by TRIMORE Fitness on May 13, 2011
Pre Race I woke up in good spirits, excited to race. I got ready and hopped on my bike, heading towards Lynch Hill. It was just a year ago that I was so scared and nervous about my first race that I couldn’t even ride down the hill. Now I was heading down with my [...]

Oceanside 70.3 2011- Her side of the story
Posted by TRIMORE Fitness on April 7, 2011
“Triathlon is 90% mental strength and the other half physical strength.” Read on a poster somewhere in Camp Pendleton.
