Periodization Workshop this Thursday

I will be spending about 30 minutes this Thursday (2/19) talking about periodization and planning your race season at the Bluegrass Triathlon Club meeting, which will be taking place on Ashland Ave across the street from John’s Run/Walk Shop.  I will be speaking from 6:30pm – 7:00pm and will stay around to answer any additional questions.  Please visit the Bluegrass Triathlon Club website for more details: www.bgtriclub.com

Congrats to Mideast Multisport Athlete Ron Shashy!

I wanted to say congrats to athlete Ron Shashy for having an amazing race in yesterday’s Mercedes Marathon in Birmingham, AL. Shashy ran an unbelievable 3:00:29, which is a PR of about 6 minutes.  What a fantastic race!!! I am still waiting for the official results to post so that we can find out how Shashy did in his age group and overall. Nice job Shashy!!!

Mideast Multisport Athletes in 2009!

I am so excited for the 2009 Racing Season! Mideast Multisport has added a new coach, Dave Kuendig, and we have also added a lot of new athletes to our team!  We are also excited because Mideast Multisport Athlete Tony White has officially received his “pro” card and will be making his professional debut at St. Anthony’s triathlon in April. He will also be competing in races such as PATCO (ITU Continental Champ race), Ironman Kansas 70.3, Chattanooga Triathlon, Chicago Triathlon, Pro Nationals, Ironman Augusta 70.3 and hopefully Ironman 70.3 World Championships in November!  I am really looking forward to working with all of the Mideast Athletes. I have just completed an elite coaching mentor program with the High Performance Coaches at USA Triathlon, and I am currently completing my USA Triathlon Level 2 Coaching Certification. I have learned so many valuable “golden nuggets” and I cannot wait to start applying them to my athletes.  We are currently accepting athletes for the 2009 season, so if you are still looking for a coach, please contact us and we will be happy to help you achieve your fitness goals! Please check out our site when you get a chance, as we will post race reports for the coaches and for our athletes.  Thanks for reading! Good luck with your training in the 2009 season!
