What a weekend it was for Team Triumph as our athletes gathered at four different races to put their training to the test! Congratulations to everyone for stepping up to the start line and getting comfortable with being uncomfortable!!
For many of our athletes, the swim is by far the most challenging part. We have helped so many of you over the years to learn to overcome fears of the water and anxiety. You can see by the look on some of their faces below, that they were pretty darn happy to get out of that water!!
We had a great cheering crew out under the Team Triumph tent as well throughout the weekend. Thanks to those who cheered on their teammates and put smiles on their faces as they went by.
Meanwhile, in Montreal we had a few members doing the World Championships, our wonderful Brenda Ross did the Tupper Lake Tinman and Drew Dobson completed Ironman Nice!!
Congrats to all of YOU for starting and even if some didn't finish you are all heroes for Triing!!!

A year ago I could only tread water and had not run since childhood. With the amazing Virtual Olympic course, support, guidance, and tips from of all the folks at Team Triumph I've ended the season with my first Olympic distance triathlon under my belt and am hooked! Really looking forward to the 2025 season and even to the hard work over the winter to prepare. Karen Houle
I wanted to let you know that the Perth triathlon was a great experience, I somehow placed third in my age group! What a supportive group of participants (including Team Triumph athletes), cheering bystanders and volunteers.
Thanks to your swim lessons, I learned the technical basics and gained confidence to get back in the pool after decades. And it was really special doing this with Ann Laidlaw, my bestie for many years. We did a couple of additional swims with Kevin and Team Triumph people, also a great way to continue learning and practicing good technical form.
I will continue with lane swimming and who knows, maybe there's another triathlon in my future!
I love the accountability and the structure of the Virtual 70.3 Half Ironman training program. I don't think I would have gotten this far without the program. The accountability is huge for me!
