2010 is Underway

Lake Mills Sprint (WI Season Opener) - 16 weeks

Door County 1/2 Ironman - 22 weeks

Ironman Wisconsin - 30 weeks

It is that time of year again… time to sign up for races, dream up and define your personal fitness goals, dust out the cobwebs between your bike spokes, locate your swim goggles at the bottom of your workout bag, embrace the cold and go for a run in the snow and start getting back in shape.  If you haven’t thought about any of the above but would like to participate in a triathlon in 2010, it is time to get your rear in gear!  Hopefully the countdown above is that little boost of motivation you need to get off the couch (I know, the Olympics are on so we are all likely spending a little more time in front of the TV that normal).  But why not watch the Olympics while you are working out on the treadmill or stationary bike.  Talk about motivation!

Dream up some big goals for yourself, hire a coach to help get you there, enlist training partners to keep you accountable and motivated, and pursue your goals with passion and enthusiasm!

Looking forward to seeing you at the races and cheering you on to your personal best performances!

And if you need a coach and stellar training partners, you can find them here at Madison Multisport.  Check us out and contact coach cindi for 2010 details.

Train Smart!

Ironman Wisconsin - 8 MM Teammates, 8 Inspiring Stories

Ironman Wisconsin - September 13, 2009
2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, 26.2 mile run

Anna - Anna’s performance far exceeded her expectations for her first IM distance event.  She paced her swim and bike as planned, then felt better than expected on the run and was able to keep up a great pace for the marathon.  Her enjoyment of the race was evident in her smiling face throughout the day.  Anna definitely receives the ‘performance of the year’ award for this stellar day.

Brodie - This was Brodie’s 4th Ironman Wisconsin over the 7 year history of the event and he improved on his previous best by 58 minutes.  That’s right, a new PR by nearly an hour!  Based on his focus and determination over the summer, it is no surprise, his hard work paid dividends on race day.  Congrats on an amazing performance.
