Brent Bills is a passionate endurance athlete who has completed 22 St. George Marathons since 2002. He has completed 7 full Ironmans and 17 half Ironmans—11 in St. George alone. At 50, he pushed his limits with 500 miles of racing in one year. Brent ran track and cross country in high school, but his competitive journey took off at a new level in 2001 when friends persuaded him to try a triathlon. With little experience, a heavy mountain bike, and a basic fitness routine, Brent got hooked and steadily improved—eventually hiring a swim coach and upgrading his gear. A two-time cancer survivor, he reignited his fitness journey to reclaim his health. Despite injuries like torn hamstrings and calf strains, Brent remains committed, even earning a Boston Marathon qualifying time. His story is one of grit, resilience, and determination. Outside of competing athletically, he has worked as the Business Administrator and Chief Financial Officer of the Washington County School District for 23 years, has been married for 30 years, and has 1 child.
