It’s hard to believe I’m writing this, but in 2021, we are entering our 18th year of coaching. We absolutely must offer our sincere and heartfelt thanks to all of you–Camelback Coaching athletes past and present–for making this possible. For the last 17 years, it has been an honor and a privilege to work with you and help you in the pursuit of your goals. Here’s to a safe and healthy 2021 . . . hopefully, with actual races. 🙂
We actually had a pretty full slate of racing this past weekend! Congratulations to everyone!
Our athletes raced virtually, in trail runs, and even competed in a local tri last weekend!

Also, Frank Smith also kept his monthly marathon streak alive with a 7:06 finish in the Leaping Luchador 50K (virtual)!
Actual races are starting to happen again! Kemp Conrad and DJ McCabe raced the DeGray Lake Olympic Triathlon in Arkansas. Kemp finished in 2:46 and took 1st in his AG! DJ finished in 2:39 and took 4th in his AG. These two will be racing the New Roads ½ Ironman next weekend in New Orleans. Nice job guys!!
Frank Smith is at it again! He raced the Katy Trail 50K in Dutzow, MO this past weekend. Frank finished in 6:27 and took first in his AG. This raced marked the 8th consecutive year that Frank has finished a marathon or ultra-race each month. What a streak!!
The photo here is from our trio of Tennessee athletes (DJ McCabe, Kemp Conrad, and Ed Wallis) who raced the Buster Britton Triathlon in Alabama a couple of weeks ago.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Yes, we have race results!
We are fortunate to coach athletes from around the country, and in certain places, they are actually holding races!
Three of our athletes–DJ McCabe, Kemp Conrad, and Ed Wallis— raced the BUSTER BRITTON TRIATHLON in Alabama. This race holds a special place in our hearts as Anne raced here waaaaaay back in 1990 when we were stationed in Pensacola, FL, for flight school. Yikes! Fastest 30 years ever!
Anyhow, our athletes had some great performances:
DJ McCabe – 1:04 – 5th in AG
Kemp Conrad – 1:06 – 2nd in AG
Ed Wallis – 1:13 – 10th in AG
All three will be racing the New Roads ½ IM in LA in Sep. Nice job guys!!

We’d like to congratulate Frank Smith who kept his monthly marathon streak alive by completing the Flip Flops 50K this past weekend in Ohio. Frank finished the 50K in 7:14 under hot and humid conditions. Nice job Frank!
