Old and on Your Left

When you think of Anthony Sullivan, odds are you think of him as the face of OxiClean or that guy parodied in Jaboody Dubs videos. You probably don’t think of him as a masters triathlete and former nationally ranked swimmer in his home country of England. Earlier this week, I sat down with Sully for a wide-ranging … Continue reading Anthony Sullivan Comes Clean

If you’re a triathlete living in the Mid-Atlantic, there are two things that are certain 1) you’re getting ready to start your local race season and 2) You’ve probably competed in at least one of Greg Hawkins’ races. Over the past 14 years, Greg has gone from producing races part-time to running the largest race … Continue reading Race Time!

It’s been a long wait for a new episode of Old And On Your Left, but I promise this episode is worth the wait. I had the opportunity to chat with Mat Steinmetz, founder of 51 Speedshop, coach to Ironman World champions, bike fitter to pro tour teams, and all around speed whisperer. I could … Continue reading Fitting the Pieces Together

It feels like forever since I have posted an episode, and that’s because it has been. After a lot of digging around… and waiting… and reading, here’s episode 8: Salt, Drugs & Rock and Roll. I figured that sounded better that Salt, Lies and Videotape. This is the story of how ostarine, a drug designed … Continue reading Salt, Drugs & Rock and Roll

This week’s episode covers a lot of ground, almost all of it uphill. I talk with Nadia El-Awady about her first full Ironman last fall, how she balances the demands of her personal and professional commitments with her adventures, and what she’ll be doing during 2018. I also talk about doping, how a recent USADA … Continue reading An Interview with Nadia El-Awady

This week we visit with coach Shelly Lake of Fiv3 Racing. Shelly has coached me for the past three years – from my first 70.3 to the Boston Marathon, to a tremendous performance at last year’s 70.3 World Championships in Chattanooga.  And it’s not just me.  She’s coached more athletes than I can count to … Continue reading A Conversation with Coach Shelly Lake

This podcast episode discusses trail running, shares Nadia El-Awady's awesome blog post about triathlon, and tells why training partners make you fast & happy

This episode discusses transitioning from athlete to coach, whether soft or hard surface running is best & is winter for building base or blasting intervals?

I received more questions than I could fit into one episode (and received a few I wasn’t sure I wanted to answer). But answer them I did. In this episode I tackle burning questions like: How much do pros race? Why does WTC suck? What’s so great about training camps? Is triathlon cheaper than therapy? … Continue reading Ask Me Anything Part 1

It’s funny how this episode reshuffled itself several times over the past week.  First, I realized Christmas is less a week away. Then people kept sending me emails or telling me “you need to include this in the Gift Guide.” And if you’re a world-class holiday procrastinator like me, the Internet has changed your life … Continue reading 2017 Triathlon Holiday Gift Guide (Part 2)
