My Trip to the Rock in the Middle of the Sea

This was my second trip to the Big Island for the Ironman World Championship race. Both times I have gone with clients who have qualified. This year, I had 6 additional athletes come with me to enjoy the training and the race. It was great fun to have a mini training camp in Kona! It’s a great place to test your run fitness in such heat and humidity! The highlights of my trip were swimming everyday with the fishies and spending time at the Timex Tent; I love the occasional Timex family reunions! A HUGE thanks to Tristan, Keith, Dave, Herbie and Tom for all they did for me while in Kona. Additional thanks to Jon with KSwiss, Brian with Sugoi, Justin with Aquasphere and Scott with Nuun. Ya’ll ROCK!
Congratulations to all the athletes that qualified this year and their finishes! Now, back on the bike for the final weeks of training for Clearwater. http://www.tristafrancis.com/
