Macca piloting his Specialized SHIV out on the Kona Ironman course. By Conrad Stoltz (I’m showing off my mad camera skills, hoping to someday get paid for this writing/photography hobby of mine).
The reason I havent blogged in a while is the lack of interwebs connection at our Kona condo. Been knocking out some amazing [...]
Triathlon Team mate Fraser Cartmell did us all proud and won the South Africa 70.3 this past weekend. I watched him train diligently in Stellenbosch over the past 2 years, but apart from his 70.3 win in the UK, he hasnt really picked the fruit of his hard work and talent yet. This year is [...]

I trained with Andy at the Olympic Training Center. He arrived fat and unfit - just starting his tri career 2 years after barely missing the US Olympic swimming [...]
I couldn’t figure out what the squeaking sounds were, till the dolphins were right next to me. They hung around for a while and swam amongst the 100s of other swimmers - delighted squeals piping up everywhere…
Amber in familiar territory- Kona start line. Its her 3rd Kona IM. Her best time was 10hr40 in [...]
The Ironman village had a demo booth where athletes can test run shoes, ride bikes etc. I worked at the Avia booth and was amazed at the size and energy of this whole Kona/Ironman thing. The Avi Lite II seems to be the most poplular for IM racing- its light with plenty of cushioning. [...]
