Meet the Business Owner

Chris T.

Business Owner

I am a USAT Level 1 Certified Coach and an accomplished triathlete with almost 30 years of racing experience. I have competed at all distances of triathlon as both a pro and a top level amateur.

While pursuing my undergraduate degree at The University of Texas in Austin, I served as a charter member of Austin Triathletes and the Texas Triathletes. In 1989, I was the Texas State Triathlon Champion and 3^rd at the World’s Toughest Triathlon which served as the National Ultra-​Distance Championship. After graduating, I continued to pursue triathlon and was a top ranked triathlete in the South-​Midwest Region for many years. In recent years, I have focused primarily on Ironman distance triathlons, winning my age group at Ironman Kentucky and qualifying for and competing at the Ironman World Championships in Kona twice. I use my extensive background in endurance competition and exercise physiology to coach and develop athletes of all abilities.
