Been a little while since I have checked in so here it goes....If you have been following my race results you can most likely see that I am not the same athlete I was just 6 months ago...I have been struggling quite a bit since early March but sometimes you don't realize how deep a hole you have... read more

Christie Sym - Injuries suck, may as well be honest!
By now most in the triathlon world familiar with me are aware of the fact that I’m dealing with a pretty serious injury. I’ve shared snippets of it along the way, but to be honest have also hidden myself away from the sport that not too long ago was my world on a daily basis. Today, triathlon ju... read more

James Cunnama - Ironman Texas
"Ouch. Ouch. ...Ouch! Jeez! ...Ouch!! Holy S#!+!!" It was the 35C. It was +70% humidity. The sun was beating down from above, and up from the tar surface I was running along. And after a hard 180km ride I was tired. But that was not the problem - I was running on what felt like hot coals. Bare... read more

Bella Bayliss - Ironman Lanzarote 2013
Well that really was not the day I wanted to have. I went out thinking I could win it, but when the gun went off, I struggled from that moment on. I kept calm when hundreds of men were swimming over the top of me in the first 400 metres, but after 30 minutes I felt like I was blowing up, something... read more

Matt Bailey - Life Doesn’t Always Go To Plan
Picture this you are overseas (well New Zealand) just having completed a race 2 days ago, which didn’t quite go to plan, so you are really looking forward to getting home and starting your training in preparation for a better result hopefully at the next race. It’s 5.00am in the morning feeling... read more

Carrie Lester - Moving on to USA
It has been a busy few months, packed with training, racing and loads of travel. The effect of too much travel is starting to wear on me and I am very much looking forward to the next few months of not having to pack up my bike and travel around the world! I have been based in my hometown of Mooloo... read more

Christian Nitschke - Past few weeks
The past 5 weeks just went by so fast. Incredible, how time goes by so fast. My last blog was about the late winter here in northern Germany. In the first half of April we went from complete snow cover to 20°C and sun within just 10 days! The weather was just perfect during the last 4 weeks with ve... read more

Mathieu O'Halloran - Mountain Biking To The Next Level!
Hey readers - many of you know that I DNF'd the recent X-Terra Philippines after crashing 2 days before the race...Well after the race, I ultimately had 2 options: #1) To put my MTB in the corner & focus to ride on Cervégnolo P3. #2) To suck it up and keep ridding my MTB. Well since ... read more

Mathias Hecht - Start into 2013 race season
It has been a while since my last blog. I have been training the house down and set a solid foundation for a long year with the main goal to be back in the Top 10 in Hawaii. Well, to get there you need quite a few "kona points" and that means it is about time I start racing. For my first race this y... read more

Daniel Halksworth - Samui Race
Home now after a good trip to Thailand. I arrived a week before the race knowing the weather was brutally hot. The first few days on the island were extremely stormy with some unbelievable rain. Having only my front brake as my rear was broken from travel riding on the roads was a little dangerous t... read more

Joseph Spindler - Name: Jo Spindler - Occupation: 'Professional Tourist'
That’s what happens when you spend 8 weeks (so far!) training on Lanzarote, friends back home start to call you the 'professional tourist' – or, alternatively 'pool-boy' or 'life-guard' but that's due to them jealously seeing pics of my tanned physique on Facebook! Little do they know that t... read more

David Dellow - Kona & 2013
Almost six months ago now I lined up in Kona for my first shot at the Hawaii ironman. My lead up to the race could not have been any better, I had a full one year injury free period, plenty of races under my belt and a great three month pre Hawaii training camp in Leysin, Switzerland with Team TBB. ... read more

Steffen Caroline - IM Melbourne - Gescheiterte Titelverteidigung
Etwas enttäuscht und trotzdem irgendwie glücklich es doch noch ins Ziel geschafft zu haben, lief ich letzten Sonntag als 3e am IRONMAN Melbourne ins Ziel.

Sam Warriner - Coaching - It's Kids Stuff!
Here in New Zealand I coach quite a few kids. I’m sort of the Team TBB of kids coaching as I seem to get all the kids who for one reason or another don’t quite ‘fit’ with their local clubs, or perhaps they have barriers to joining a squad – so usually they or their parents hunt me out and... read more

Diana Riesler - Desert trip
„Nana-you’re 3:40 behind the 1st woman!“ – “What? You are crazy!” The 1st time in my life I came that close out of the water. It showed up that the last few weeks Jo did a great job when we try to improve my swim. But the road to Abu Dhabi was not that easy as the result may show! The w... read more

Mary Beth Ellis - Ode to my new favorite training grounds: Cozumel
I have been inspired to write this blog after my incredible time training down in Cozumel this November. Previously I have been to Cancun and Playa del Carmen and wasn’t sure how the training would be in Cozumel. But I was astounded by the magical place that is Cozumel. The island is a triath... read more

Aaron Farlow - Headed home
My final race in China two weeks ago was my last detour as I made my way back home after the Euro season. I left camp in Leysin 10 days earlier planning to squash an Iron distance race and double Olympic into the next two weekends. Things didn't go perfect but I got through it and back home in on... read more

Hiroyuki Nishiuchi - Finished 20th at IM Frankfurt
I finished 20th at Ironman Frankfurt on last Sunday. It was so cold race for me. It was rain during on bike... Sometime, it's so hard to hold handle bar on the stone-paved road... But I enjoyed riding the road because it's first time in my triathlon life:) Maki finished 11th. She h... read more
