Hawaii from Home
Races might be cancelled, but we can still have our own triathlon adventures. If you’ve always dreamed about covering the full iron-distance or are missing out on the Big Island this year, then join us for the week when so many triathletes would have been gathering in Hawaii. Cover the 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike, and marathon run over those seven days. Do it all at once as fast as you can, or break it up and enjoy the challenge.

Hey athletes, here's a tip!
Make a light double chin and lengthen your neck extensors. This will keep your spine in line and directly impacts spinal stability. A hyperextended neck is common both seated and standing. I realize you need to look up but get it back down!

Failure is not an option. Even in the darkest moments of racing, hang onto your mental spirit.

Hey Athletes, here 4 of my top running tips:
1. Eyes are always high. Look at the top of the hill or beyond when running up a gradient. This will maximize gluteal output and not overload the quads.
2. Use your calves with a slight contraction on lift off. Feel them engage.
3. Shorten your arm action by reducing the angle at your elbow to 45 degrees BUT keep the swing back the same at 45 degrees. So the arms stay closer to the chest with less bend but swing them back like you’re running fast.
4.Keep your head in a neutral position. Focus on a point that is slightly higher than your height. Lightly draw in your chin like you're making a soft double chin.
Ready? Let's go!
