It’s race week, folks! My absolute favorite time of year. In the two full days I’ve spent in Kona I’ve ridden on the famous Queen K Highway, run through the infamous Energy Lab, and swam with fish and turtles!

The home stretch! Ali’i Drive, just before the finish line.
Race week also means reunions with friends! Today Betty and I had breakfast with a few of our favs, Team HPB superstars Alyssa and Julie!
Betty, Alyssa, Me, & Julie, after breakfast with a view!!
In case you missed it, I did a fun pre-race interview with Herbert Krabel of Slowtwitch. We talked everything from airport food to tattoos, with a bit of Kona in between! Check it out via the link below:

I also chatted with Bloomberg’s Mike Buteau about triathlon becoming an NCAA sport. Spoiler alert! I am VERY much for it! Check out the video here:
Stay tuned, because there’s still LOTS more to come from the Big Island! And as always, Mahalo for reading!!
