At IRONMAN 70.3 Timberman,
with my older brother Thomas who brought me into the sport
|
We are entering the final weeks of preparation for the 2015 Kona IRONMAN World Championship on October 10. For me, and also probably for you if you enjoy this sport as a competitor, it's been a full race season already. Now, more than ever, we look to our families and supporters for that extra bit of energy and belief that will keep us training and racing strong through those important A races left to come!
We could not enjoy this sport as fully without the help of others: the spouses, family members, and friends who offer encouragement; the race sherpas and cheerers; the coaches and massage therapists; the bike mechanics and logistics coordinators; and others too numerous to include. As professionals we rely on our sponsors and top equipment to show the best of what is possible on the race course.
Below you will see announcements for new products and events from Aqua Sphere, CLIF, and Garmin, who continue to innovate to bring greater enjoyment and higher performance to the sport.
I wish you well as you finish out your race season. When you toe the line, the slate is wiped clean, and it's a new day, new experience, and a new race. Bring your best!
Stay humble, stay hungry!
T.O.

Garmin HRM Swim and HRM Tri
Train and compete with more heart than ever before with HRM Swim and HRM Tri, heart rate monitors designed to track underwater. Enhance your triathlon experience by pairing HRM-Tri and HRM-Swim with Forerunner 920XT for a much more unified approach to training and racing. The non-slip HRM-Swim is perfect for pool swimming with wall push-offs. On land, in open water and for racing, use HRM-Tri's ultra-soft strap that's as comfortable out of water as it is underwater. Both store and forward heart rate data to Forerunner 920XT.

The next generation of triathletes! This young fan named Timothy is looking fast in his new kit (and he has a fast name)!
As the Kona training ramps up (along with the temperature outside) it's nice to have FuelBelt with me to stay hydrated! Its also nice to let people know who is passing them when I run by ;-)
