WOW. I’m living a dream! This is so cool. Thanks Ed, Ike and the whole AVIA team for helping me create my dream shoe.
Fast racing just around the corner….

Spot the Caveman? (In Specialized’s all red.) Nervously peering around the pack on the far left.  Typical triathlete, I distrust all forms of pack riding. I like to blaze the open road/trail, pick my own lines, and set my own pace. Here, (on the 1st few kms of open roads) busy little 18 year olds [...]

February 18, 2009, Berkeley, CA – GU Energy Labs is proud to announce that the best male off-road triathlete in history, Conrad Stoltz - known to many as the Caveman - has selected GU as his exclusive sports nutrition supplier. [...]

Falke socks is basically the South African version of Balega socks. (USA) Or vice versa?! Anyway, thay are the best out there in terms of quality. Seamless toe boxes, deep heels, 1st class yarn. Cool company too.

And why I’m not racing Xterra Temecula coming Sunday(2005):
It all happened on a sunny afternoon about 6 weeks ago. As usual, I played my own little “carry all the groceries in one trip” game. A 15 kilogram bag of potatoes (Caveman staple diet) obscured my view of the trail leading up to my cave, but [...]

This I wrote for the 2002 Lifetime Fitness Triathlon brochure.  They asked us to “talk trash”- a new experience to me, so I let loose and talked trash!
In my 15 years in triathlon I’ve learnt a few lessons:
One is: THE MORE GEAR YOU HAVE, THE FASTER YOU GO. Ok, I have TONS of gear. The [...]

A while ago I got this email:
Hey Conrad,
Thought I’d share this with you… Thanks for making my pictures look so good!

Thanks Nils. Making a sweaty Caveman look good in the Alabama woods takes real talent!
I’m in Darkest Africa at the moment and dont get magazines or follow news on the web. [...]

The climb was brutal, but once we disappeared into the clouds and the trail leveled out, it was as if we were in heaven. Trail riding heaven that is! The trails were tricky, rocky and scary at times.

 Rich Cruse has been shooting XTERRA since my 1st intro to dirty triathlon in 2001. Since then we have become great friends, and we have done a lot of “work” together.
Our working relationship:

“It was a dark and stormy night…”
No, just kidding!
“It was a bright and sparkly morning… Six of us - all friends and family- got together for a little informal XTERRA training camp on our farm near Lydenburg, Mpumalanga. Uh, thats South Africa.
These guys are all relative newbies to sport. Sorry Gustav- rugby (even provincial rugby) [...]

I just got back on the farm after riding 3 of the 4 days of Sabie Experience. Sabie is only 80km from our farm and when my good friend (and Specialized Factory team damager) Bobby Behan said we were invited to ride, we couldnt say no. Despite still being in the midst of “ice cream [...]

Bobby in our driveway.

The Suunto booth was just a few spaces from the Balega booth. As I went over to say “hi” I was pleasanty surprised by this poster they had. Larger then life. It was taken at XTERRA Snow Valley in CA, where I raced with my new limited edition, customized Suunto t6 Red Arrow. The one [...]

Behold the new Avia AVI STOLTZ!
I’m super excited. The moment I got the shoes I test ran them into the Dallas sunset. As I stood there on the levee, I marveled at the full moon rising over the skyscrapers of downtown Dallas and I realized: “This is my proudest moment of the year.” “This shoe, [...]

The Balega booth was located front row center. Pretty much the same place they have in the specialty running industry. The poster was shot on top of Paarl Rock near Stellenbosch.

The Running Event 2008

Training & product testing on Kona lava fields before IM Kona

I knew I had my 4th XTERRA World title in the bag. I knew it.
I felt the strongest I have felt in years. Tore up the bike course and had between 2min30 and 3min lead with only 6k to go on the bike- and then the P word happened again- on the smoothest road [...]
