It’s been 5 years since I began participating in triathlons (swim\/bike\/run). I started out with a simple duathlon (run\/bike\/run) in central Oregon. Since then, I’ve worked my way up to racing half-iron distance events (1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 mile run) multiple times a year.<\/p>\n
This year I had the opportunity to work with a great sponsor, Portland’s own Bob’s Red Mill<\/a>, who graciously supplied me with their fantastic food products. As part of my engagement with them I’ve blogged for their Train with Grain<\/a><\/i> program, sharing what I’ve learned over the years. In case you are into triathlons or are considering trying one, I thought I’d share with you some of my posts:<\/a><\/p>\n\n
\nEach sport is unique, but all three can benefit from optimizing the motions your body goes through to propel you.<\/li>\n
\nTriathlon training is a delicate balance of time management, and sometimes outside factors can throw things off. Here are some tips to keep your season on track.<\/li>\n
\nI had a run-in with an overeager age-grouper at a race earlier this year. Please don’t be “that guy!”<\/li>\n
\nMy race report of my first long-distance race of the season, and also my favorite race each year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n <\/div>\n
