In 2018 I dipped my toe into the cycling world. I was amazed at the power that these women could produce! I did well in road races, but lacked in critierums. I learned a lot about tactics and racing in close proximity to other riders! I’ve raced my way up to a Cat. 3 rider. Over the last few years my excitement and passion for triathlon has not wavered, but my excitement and passion for cycling has continued to grow.

It wouldn’t be true Ironman training if it didn’t start out with a minor setback right? As Jason was prepping for his initial base training for Ironman Maryland I received a text: “So, you know how I felt fine yesterday? Well I woke up not feeling fine today. I’ve tested positive for Covid”. Okay.

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.
