The last few weeks we have been trying to use up every available training hour he has in between work and work travel. He has had a couple 14 hour training weeks, which has been really good for him. His final preparation has been getting very race specific as we dial in race power for the bike, and race pace for the run. Here is a look at a key session in the swim, the bike, and the run.

I’m so excited to bring you another athlete training series. The season spent following Kelly’s Ironman journey had several folks reach out to me telling me how much they enjoyed the series. Kelly inspired many athletes to keep training through the high’s and low’s of a year dedicated to Ironman; isn’t that amazing? He also inspired one BEST athlete of mine in particular: Jason Spruiell. Jason reached out and volunteered to have his journey documented this year! So, while Jason gears up for Ironman, we are going to document his training. The good, the bad, the ugly. I hope you follow along for this ride as we get started.

I am very excited to be hosting camp again in Chattanooga. I have been able to hold this triathlon training camp since 2016, with the exception of some pandemic years. And I must say, it is one of my favorite camps. This year it will be no exception! Outlined below will be some details about camp, FAQs, and the link to register. I hope you can make plans to attend as it is a fun weekend of training.

And just like that Ironman California is over. While the race might be done for Kelly, I am sure the memories of the experience will live on. Before I dive in to the race recap, I just want to tell you all how proud I am of this guy. While I’ve documented a good bit of his training for you, there is so much more that he both balances and battles with to be able to train and ultimately cross the finish line at IM California.
