For the 2019 season I will be training under the direction and guidance of my good friend and former college teammate Zach Switaj. Zach and I will be following the same training protocols as we try to qualify the 2019 Half Ironman World Championship in Nice, France.

Location

I live, train, and work around Southeastern Massachusetts. You won’t find any big mountains or world renowned views around here, but it is where I call home. During the work week I try to start and finish all of my runs close to home to make sure I don’t waste any precious time commuting from one place to another. On the weekends I enjoy a change of scenery and will venture around New England to find a good trail. I often find new places in the areas around where friends and family live. Some of my favorite training spots in the area are listed below.

Swimming

Almost all of my swim training takes place in the pool. I am lucky to have a YMCA facility with a pool just down the street from where I live. When the weather is nice and I have time for a trip I’ll jump in the water at one of these spots.
