Hello all my Real Results workout junkies!!
Attached are some pictures of my most recent triathlon mayhem.  As many of you may know, I have a serious addiction to endurance training whether it be dragging you guys with me to a little bike cardio session (thank you by the way!) to an all out triathlon race.  And I would like to justify my compulsions and cravings for running, biking, and swimming…perhaps this may even breathe some new life into your fitness career as well.

Another fantastic element of endurance racing or training is the community involved.  The people I’ve met with the same beautiful sickness have become like another family.  A veritable support group.  Fellow colleagues and Real Results trainers Cyndee Platko (my coach and idol) and Denny Silva (one of my closest friends and training partner), have guided my training and introduced me to some of the finest athletes/people I’ve ever met.  These athletes are moms, dads, teachers, lawyers, waitresses whatever all sharing the same passion.  No matter what level of athleticism be it first timers or seasoned athletes, someone will ALWAYS be ready to accompany me at Lake Mead.
I suppose you have been waiting to hear about the aesthetic perks that follow diligence in intense cardio training…lookin’ good naked! Just kidding, but seriously weight loss is an inevitable result of well rounded fitness training ESPECIALLY with triathlon workouts.  But I’m only mentioning this to lure you in.  I’ve found many more things just as satisfying as the skinny jeans being loose, like for instance, pushing my body and therefore mind way past comprehensive limits.  Talk about endorphins.  One of my clients starting a small career in running told me about how it made her evaluate her tendency to be a project starter, but not finisher.  When she finished her first race, it caused a positive chain reaction in her life suggesting the possibility of finishing more than just a race! (People may pay a fortune to hear that from a Life Coach I’m sure, she probably just bought good shoes.)

Surely everyone may find a different reason or reasons to adhere themselves lovingly to this type of training.  Perhaps the gym and workouts with me or your trainer have more of a purpose.  Maybe the stretching and foam roller following a long run is no longer “because I’m supposed to” but more like “because my legs carried me to the end.” Possibly life could get a lot simpler as draining idiosyncratic life dramas are replaced with a pace watch.  I’m not sure what positive growth may occur within you if pursue endurance training…so make sure to invite me along!

For any questions about triathlons or swimming, biking, running, our very own Cyndee and Denny are the BEST resources around.  I’m not a bad bet either as you can definitely learn from all my mistakes.
