Super Sprint National Championship!

Last Thursday night in Vegas I had the biggest result of my career so far. I finished 2nd behind Australian Peter Kerr in the Super Sprint Grand Prix, winning the title of Sprint National Champion!!

Inspired by Trevor Wurtele, I've been wanting to do some alternative race report formats and this is my first attempt. Joe helped out by conducting the interview. If you enjoy listening, let us know.

Also, Universal Sports will be televising the race on October 7th at 8pm EST!! Set your DVR

I want to give a huge thanks to my sponsors, Athletes Lounge, Rolf Prima Wheels, and Zone3 wetsuits. Their support and product leave me with no excuses on race day.

Enjoy!

After the race I drove South to Tempe with my TT bike to race in the Lifetime Fitness Series Tempe Triathlon. I had a strong swim and bike, spending most of the day in 4th-5th place, until I faded during the run, falling to 10th place overall. After the excitement and effort of the race two days earlier in Vegas, I was pleased with my ability to recover well enough to get another top 10 in this competitive series.
