Why do you do Triathlon? 10 years ago it started as a means to lose weight and get in shape, but it took on a life of itself. I race triathlon now because I can, because this sport changed my life, because I'm good at it, because it keeps me focused on not so Big stuff, because it's fun, because win or lose I come out on top and that feels really good to me.

What are your top 5 race results? I have won the Gulf Coast Triathlon 1/2 Ironman the past 3 years - '09, '10, '11. / In '08 I was 2nd in Cancun 70.3. I have some long winning streaks in local Louisiana sprints.

What’s your favorite race and why? it's a tie. Gulf Coast 1/2 Ironman in Panama City Beach - Hard HOT Flat & Fast, and the Buffalo Springs Lake Triathlon 70.3 because it's the best race in the middle of nowhere where people go to race hard and get b-slapped by the elements. every year is a new adventure.

What’s your favorite workout? a long bike/run brick in spring in Red Bluff, Mississippi

What is your favorite pre-race meal? spaghetti and an ice cream sandwich

How do you celebrate after a big race? beer and beach (if there is one)

Whats was the last song you listened to? C'mon by Fun

Whats a hobbie of yours besides triathlon? I paint on canvas and love to work in the garden growing vegetables

What is favorite Zoot product? oh boy, must I pick one? 4"tri shorts, compression recovery tights, compression recovery socks, icefill sleeves

What is your ultimate triathlon goal? ultimate goal, to keep racing long into my old age. this year, to get back to Kona and Vegas.
