HAPPY NEW YEAR!

         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. 🙂

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!

Buster Britton Triathlon – Alabama

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!!
