Mathias had everything under control, or so he thought, before he caused a multi-car accident. That moment exposed a harsh reality that he was a highly functioning alcoholic.

Now sober, Mathias took to triathlons as part of his recovery to find purpose and to get himself healthy.  We talk with him about his journey from the vodka bottle to the water bottle, the difficult task of facing the truth, as well as his newly published book in which he shares the intimate pages of his journal.

NO EXCUSES.

Lining up to compete in a 70.3 Ironman triathlon is hard enough.  Now imagine that with the added stress of not having most of your intestines.  

Brandon was dealt a blow during his college days of severe ulcerative colitis that resulted in an ileostomy and a health struggle he has been dealing with for 20 years and over 26 surgeries.  

Trying to live a normal, healthy life with complications of an ostomy bag, Brandon was at the point where he just didn't want to live.  Having made it through that dark time, he started running.  That reignited his natural competitive tendencies to compete where it landed him at the start line of Ironman 70.3 Chattanooga this year.  A harrowing journey that ends in a story not to be missed.  

For anyone who has been dealt with similar health issues and needs a resource you can reach Brandon at: [email protected]

Triathlon is not just about balancing three sports but balancing how to fit it into your life.  In this episode of A Triathlete’s Journey, we talk to Jordon about choices you have to make when trying to balance both training for a major event and still maintaining a work/home life.  Jordon is at a precipice of deciding to forgo his current planned race and push it to a different one later in the year in the hopes of keeping that balance.  A challenge all of us face, no matter the sport

What do you do when there is too much to do during the day to get your training done?  You just simply get your training ride in at midnight! 

Jordon Shaw is part of our Triathlete’s Journey where he’s finding creative ways to make sure he is balancing his work and family life while still preparing for a 70.3 Ironman.  Although we don’t totally endorse midnight training rides, sometimes you do what you have to do!
