Happy Holidays & Welcome to the ERM Blog!
As the holidays come to a close, I’d like to wish everyone a happy and healthy 2011! Here’s to a year of PR’s, faster transitions, new goals and amazing accomplishments.
Having said that, welcome to the Elite Race Management blog! After deliberating on how to better engage and interact with our race participants, sponsors, and host organizations, Shawn and I have decided to launch this blog as a resource. While we certainly don’t consider ourselves authorities on all subjects in the running, cycling, and multisport world, we both are passionate about the sport and bring a few different viewpoints to the table. This blog is a tool for athletes of all skill levels and abilities, and topics covered will range from basic training concepts to advanced techniques and workouts. We’ll keep it updated weekly so be sure to check back and read the latest entry.
As an Ironman and overall athletic beast, Shawn will be sharing his knowledge about triathlons, duathlons, marathons, and any other “–ons” you can think of. If you haven’t read his bio on our site, Shawn has a wealth of knowledge that he is always willing to share. While his spelling might be atrocious, his advice never is.
As for me, I’ll be adding my insights on training, racing, and all other things running related. From beginners to seasoned veterans, I hope to offer balanced and practical suggestions based on my experiences as a runner. This year I’ve decided to get back into racing after a short (depending on the definition) hiatus, so I’ll also be posting thoughts and updates as I train for a half marathon in the Spring, and a full marathon in the Fall.
Coaches, trainers, and accomplished athletes will serve as guest bloggers and will also add their unique perspectives on topics throughout the year. Don’t hold your breath for Lance Armstrong, but I promise they’ll be worth the read.
I encourage readers to comment on entries whether they agree, disagree, or don’t understand! Sharing knowledge helps everyone improve, and no questions are too simple, or complex. Keep it clean though; we have 6 year olds running our races! Shoot me a line at will@eliteracemanagement.com if you have any questions or specific topics you’d like to read about.
