Update from Coach Troy!
troy bday Hello and thank you for receiving our email updates!

It's been awhile since my last email update due to lots of travel and other distractions.  I recently celebrated 'aging up' and turning the big 4-0!  Officially in the Masters Division now, I might someday stage a comeback to competitive tri racing. If only my travel schedule would allow for it!

Last week we hosted our 10th Annual Lake Placid Training Camp (see our 2008 video, click HERE). This year's camp was a little smaller than the past few years, but that was fine as it gave me the opportunity to get to know the campers better... a great group of people! Our next camp is in Louisville KY, July 24-26 - so join us if you can. There's also a remote chance we'll be hosting a Madison, WI Camp as an Iron Distance WI course preview - so if you're interested in learning more about this training (and learning) weekend, email me at troy@coachtroy.com. And for more information about our 2010 winter Tucson Training camp, visit HERE.

For any of you doing the Life Time Fitness Minneapolis Triathlon, please be sure to stop by our Life Time Endurance Expo booth! I'll be there much of the day - and I'll be hosting a Pro Forum where you'll get to listen to the top pros give insights to their training and racing secrets. Please drop by to say hello.

That's the scoop right now.  As this is mid-season, I hope your training is going well and you're building towards your late season peak.  If you have any coaching needs for this year or the future, please contact me or one of my associate coaches.


Train safe and train smart,
Coach Troy
