WANT TO SWIM FASTER - COACH CLINT |
|
Three days ago I was on
deck while a group of triathletes were going through the
meters I’d laid out for them. One of the swimmers hit
the wall, looked up at me and after a moment said, “I
want to swim faster.” This young woman is serious about

was the New Balance ½ Ironman and I was in attendance as
a friend and fan but also as a coach. It wasn’t the

Congratulations to Peak Performance athlete Irvin
Tang for his victory at the Dawson Creek sprint
triathlon (coincidentally the birth place of his
coach) on May 27. Irvin's time of 49:16 for the 500
meter swim, 15K ride and 4K run was good enough to

IRVIN TANG - WILDFLOWER REPORT |
|
Peak
Performance athlete Irvin Tang produced two
outstanding results in his two last at bats. At
Wildflower his 5:11 on a tough day surprised
everyone except his coach. It was a 1/2 P.B. for
Irvin on a decidedly non-P.B. day! See his [Race
Report]. Just two weeks later he toed the
line at the Cultus Lake Oly and placed 11th overall
in a deep field.
