I AM A MULTISPORT ATHLETE RACING TRIATHLON, DUATHLON AND CYCLING EVENTS. I AM A TWO-TIME PARADUATHLON NATIONAL CHAMPION (2018, 2019), TWICE FINISHED RANKED #1 GLOBALLY IN THE IRONMAN 70.3 ALL WORLD ATHLETE RANKINGS (2017, 2019) AND WAS THE #1 RANKED PARA ALL-AMERICAN FOR OFF-ROAD TRIATHLON (2018). THIS IS MY STORY.

56 miles

Riding the roads near Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

How long does it take to know a community?

Some of my favorite memories have come from training rides and some of my biggest moments that I’ve missed come from the races I do. I love to explore and it’s during these half Ironman training sessions where I am generally more relaxed and can take in the world from the seat of my bicycle. It’s a far different perspective than passing through via car or via running, and race scenarios only offer a peek into the communities that you’re trying to leave as fast as you got to them.

56 Miles is a new series that I’m starting to explore communities and the world that surround them via cycling. The goal is to paint a picture of what you can see or experience in around 3 hours on a bike. Where do you want to see me ride?
