Imagine what it’s like to be a professional triathlete. Everyone is genetically gifted, all use the latest fitness testing and training technology, all are in incredible physical condition, all fuel and hydrate scientifically, all have fast bikes and fast shoes. So, on race day, what separates the winners from the also-rans? Two key things, I [...]
I am fortunate to be working with three outstanding professional triathletes who are also exceptional human beings (they have all agreed to allow me to introduce them to you): 1) Ruth Astle, from the UK, is a 3x Ironman winner; Lisa Tertsch, from Germany, is ranked 5th in the world by World Triathlon and is [...]
I appreciate that is posting is a bit unusual, but, with my partnership with Argon 18, I have a truly amazing road bike to sell. This 2018 S-Works Venge Road “Hyper-bike” is as beautiful, sleek, and fast as you can get! It is loaded with extras that make the stock bike even better (see photos [...]
I am absolutely beside myself with excitement to announce Argon 18 bicycles as my newest partner for 2024 and my "title partner" that will receive top billing in supporting their brand.

The problem, as we can all attest to, is that it is extremely difficult to resist [...]
