Woah! It’s been three weeks since Worlds, and SO much has happened. I’m back in Colorado and finishing up what is probably the last little training block of 2010, getting ready for Huatulco and Puerto Vallarta (World Cup and Continental Championships, respectively), catching up on schoolwork (I guess if I wasn’t behind it’s not really […]

ITU World Championships Budapest Race Recap
My first pro world champs was another big learning experience. For the first time this year I arrived at a race prepared both mentally and physically, and yet I still made a few minor mistakes that likely had very little effect on the final score. The weather was delightfully crummy. It was pouring on the […]
World Champs
So I’m in Budapest for the Triathlon World Champs. I have not taken a picture, and have spent the majority of my time here sleeping. I arrived a day late because of terrible airline delays, but I’m ready to rock. Just a few more hours to go!!! The internet access has been difficult, but I’ll […]

San Francisco Triathlon at Alcatraz – I WON!!
Sunday was another great day for me in San Francisco. We dove off a boat at 7am into the San Francisco Bay, turned our feet to the Alcatraz Prison and swam for shore. I lead for most of the swim, but as we came into the Marina I found myself behind some guys with much […]
London World Championship Series – Post Race Reflections
I was really worried about getting a good start to the swim in London yesterday. It seemed to me that the first 300m of the swim had the potential to make or break my race, and I was probably right. Unfortunately, I broke my race before the gun went off. When the race officially started […]
San Francisco on Trical TV
This is another video from the San Francisco Pan-America Cup. It shows the actual racing! Not much else is going on here in London. We’re training in a 30.3m pool (33.3yards) which has made swim practice rather interesting: “Alright, 4×60.6 on a minute, followed by 4×90.9 on 1:15 right into a 363.6 on 5 minutes…” […]
Hamburg World Championship Series Race Review
Saturday was my second round of World Championship Series Triathlon. Bolstered with the confidence of someone able to swim ride and run alone for a draft-legal Pan-American Cup win a week earlier, I approached the start line with an undeniably brilliant race plan. I would swim to the front, drive the pace so as to […]

San Francisco Race Report – I WON!!
Not everything went right today, but the important stuff did. The race started right on time, and Brian Fleischmann and I were lined up right along the far left side of the deep water start. I was hoping we would start early since they had us lined up in 14 degree water over two minutes […]
