I would guess more than half of the XTERRA field rides Specialized and runs in AVIA\u2019s because Conrad does. When presented with media opportunities to promote his supporters, he\u2019s articulate and timely, and you can read his quotes in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.xterraplanet.com\/news\/dsp_content.cfm?id=3254\">2012 XTERRA West Championship report<\/a> to see the latest example of this. He\u2019s also brilliant one-on-one with age group athletes, dedicating his time to inform, educate, and inspire racers of every skill set, in every place we go.<\/p>\n<p>His true virtue, however, is in the quality of his character. Beyond the spotlight, when no one is watching, Conrad Stoltz is a rare gem of a person \u2013 genuine, caring, smart, and giving. In the time I\u2019ve been around Conrad I\u2019ve witnessed him change lives.<\/p>\n<p>Last August (2011) in Tokyo, Japan, at one of the busiest subway stations on earth, Conrad noticed a woman struggling with her luggage at the top of a stairwell at the exit. While hundreds of commuters quickly navigated their way around the woman, the Caveman worked his way through the crowd \u2013 like a fish swimming upstream \u2013 to help her, grabbing the cumbersome luggage and carrying it down a massive flight of stairs to the bottom.<\/p>\n<p>That is just the kind of man he is, and XTERRA racers around the world have had the pleasure of seeing him perform countless acts of kindness \u2013 from signing autographs and providing simple words of advice to full-blown mentoring gigs and visiting sick kids at Children\u2019s Hospitals.<\/p>\n<p>In Maui last October at the XTERRA World Championship Marita Oppenheimer, an avid endurance athlete who came down to cheer and support, discovered the Caveman\u2019s \u201ccoolness\u201d firsthand. Afterwards, she wrote this note to TEAM Unlimited CEO Tom Kiely to share her story\u2026<\/p>\n<p><em>Sunday was just one of the best days of my life. I found Conrad Stoltz\u2019 water bottle at the bottom of the last bike hill, and felt like I won the lottery. He is such an inspiration. I mentioned to my friends that, wouldn\u2019t it be great if I could somehow return it to him, because it seemed like a special bottle, unlike all the others. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Hours go by, and I\u2019m sitting alone on the lawn of the Ritz in the shade, and I was emailing my Husband to let him know how much fun I was having, and then I decided to prop up my special water bottle on the grass, and take a photo, just in case I lost or left it somewhere. So, I took the picture, and I hear a voice behind me, saying \u201cOh, so you like that water bottle, eh?\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>And I turn around, and there are two men, and a woman standing there, and I responded \u201cYes, look at it, look whose name is on it! It\u2019s my favorite guy.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The woman says, \u201cIs the note I wrote you still under the bottle?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>And then, I realize that it\u2019s Conrad Stoltz. I couldn\u2019t believe my luck. Under the bottle his fianc\u00e9e (someone mentioned later in the day, that they were getting married) had written, \u201cMy champion, I love you.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Oh my gosh. So I told Conrad, I was really hoping all day that I could return his bottle to him, because I felt it was a special bottle. He said, \u201cyou keep it, I have more\u201d. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>It just brings tears to my eyes, still. Then, they asked if I\u2019d like a picture with him. I couldn\u2019t believe it, because I never would have had the nerve to ask. Then we all hugged, and I wish you could have seen my face after they left. It was amazing. The best part was, that they were just the nicest, sweetest, most kind people, ever. \u2013 Marita Oppenheimer<\/em><\/p>\n<p>To put Marita\u2019s note in further perspective, Conrad had to pull from Worlds on the run \u2013 he couldn\u2019t breathe. DNFs are not part of his culture, so you can trust his disappointment was off-the-charts, but despite this \u2013 his character remained true.<\/p>\n<p>When I speak of changing lives, I think of Taylor Seavey \u2013 a teenager who is now one of the fastest age groupers in XTERRA and a future pro. Taylor is deaf. He was inspired to race XTERRA by watching Stoltz perform in Maui. As the law of attraction brought the two of them together, Stoltz was equally inspired by the courage of Seavey, and started to coach him and provide training plans to fuel the fire of the young man\u2019s dream.<\/p>\n<p>When American cycling legend Steve Larsen passed away, Conrad was there to support one of his sons Massimo, going on rides and just being a friend. XTERRA.TV did a piece on this relationship \u2013 and you have to watch it to appreciate the impact: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3p9HxcQyRC8\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bcove.me\/n8d0430u<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Conrad has done more for XTERRA and perpetuating the healthy, active, outdoors lifestyle than anyone on the planet. The XTERRA South Africa series is perhaps the most vibrant in the world, with more than 2,000 racers taking part in their championship weekend earlier this year. He\u2019s touched and motivated more people to get out and \u201cLive More\u201d than you could possibly count. Here\u2019s a fun story from the women\u2019s SA Champion Carla Van Huyssteen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConrad is an amazing guy! As a novice to XTERRA Grabouw, I arrived in Stellenbosch and asked around if anyone was going to pre-ride the course. Somehow I got hold of Conrad\u2019s cell number and sent him a text asking if he\u2019d go show me the course (so na\u00efve, and new, I didn\u2019t know at all what a legend he was at the time). He agreed and picked me up with his old wonky car and showed me around the course. Only after the race did I realize what I had done! But, he is so down to earth and kind hearted, taking the time was great of him. Conrad is very inspirational to me, leading the lifestyle I dream of, and proving that it is possible with the right perseverance!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Perseverance. Conrad has that in truck loads. When in 2006 he broke his back pre-riding the course at Nationals, he didn\u2019t give up. He actually showed up at the race two days later to support the rest of the XTERRA Tribe, arm in a sling, pain pursing through his body \u2013 but his character was holding strong. The next year he won everything, including his third world title.<\/p>\n<p>In 2009 after slicing his foot open before the start of the East Championship, while retrieving a buoy that had gotten unhooked for us, he didn\u2019t give up. He won that race.<\/p>\n<p>In 2010 when he wanted to go home and be with his Dad while he was in a fierce battle with cancer, his Dad told him no, to race and make him proud. He did just that by winning his unprecedented fourth XTERRA World Title in his honor. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo.php?v=486447273622&amp;set=vb.139989526109&amp;type=2&amp;theater\">ESPN paid tribute to his effort by naming it a top 10 play<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When his father Gert Stoltz passed away in early April, Conrad eloquently shared memories \u2013 videos and photos and stories \u2013 to share with the world what a true legend his Dad was. The XTERRA family mourned, but Conrad eased their pain \u2013 accepting their heartfelt condolences and embracing the community that cares so much about him.<\/p>\n<p>Conrad\u2019s dad said, \u201cI once showed him a dung beetle that was trying to roll his ball of dung up a very steep incline. The ball kept rolling back, but the beetle kept retrieving the ball and pressing forward. I said to Conrad, \u201cThat\u2019s how one should live one\u2019s life. One never gives up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Just five days after his passing, Stoltz won the series opener at the 2012 XTERRA West Championship, the start of a season filled with goals of a 10th Pro Series crown and fifth XTERRA World Title. It\u2019s what Gert would have wanted. The Stoltz\u2019 never give up. The next day he went home for the funeral.<\/p>\n<p>Conrad Stoltz is the coolest, kindest person you\u2019ll ever meet. It\u2019s been an honor to see him race, and watch him interact within our community. While I could never, nor could 99% of the world\u2019s fastest humans, ever keep up with him on a race course \u2013 I will try my best to follow in his footsteps as a man, and I will teach my son to be like him. He is all that is right in this world.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Trey Garman<\/p>\n<p>Vice President TEAM Unlimited\/XTERRA<\/p>\n<p>720 Iwilei Rd, #290 Honolulu, HI 96817<\/p>\n<p>808-792-2603<\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2013<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConrad Stoltz is the<strong> living, breathing personification of XTERRA<\/strong> and the values that we hold dear.<br \/>\nHe holds the<strong> record for most Championship event titles<\/strong> (47 victories) and is the only athlete in the history of our sport to hold four World Champion titles.
