The first few days of March, here in Arizona were great, training was going well, I was getting great feedback from my athletes about their training, and I was getting some private tutoring WKO+ lessons from Joe Friel.
The weekend of March 6th , Training Bible Coaching had a booth at the TRIFEST EXPO in Tucson, the expo was outstanding, lots of people stopped by to see Jim Vance, Joe Friel, and myself. The only problem was that on Wed night before the Expo started I became sick with a stomach virus, probably the worst virus I ever had. I lost 8 lbs in 3 days and by the time I got to TRIFEST I was very weak and unable to really enjoy the festivities. Joe and his wife Joyce stayed at our place for the weekend, but they kept their distance from me and my wife Sandy, who, by the way, ended up getting this virus. I did start feeling better by Tues off the next week, just in time for my client Richard Costello of Las Vegas to come train with me and also attend our TBC Tucson Camp. At the camp we had coaches Adam Zucco, Jim Vance, Rob Kelly, Joe Friel, Lindsay Zucco , Jeff Vicaro. and myself. We had over 20 athletes from all over N. America an 2 European pro triathletes attend the camp. We rode all the famous Tucson loops, Gates Pass Mt. Lemmon, and the west part of Tucson out in the desert. The coaches led groups in swim instruction, cycling skills, run technique, etc. Most of the athletes were from out of state and they loved the AZ weather which was in the 80s, and of course loved all the places we had them train at. Tucson is truly the place to train in winter and spring when getting ready for the season I'm very lucky to be spending time here in 2009.
I'll continue the March update in my next post.
