As a contributor and author coordinator for the book, I am excited to announced that Rainmaker Publishing LLC, which published my book Full Time and Sub-Nine: Fitting Iron Distance Training into Everyday Life has just published a new book titled: From Kona to Lake Placid – 50 Great US Triathlons.

Each triathlon presented in the book is written about by a unique author who participated in that particular triathlon. This unique guide will help you decide which race is best for you as you read about each author’s experiences.

I helped coordinate the author submissions and am also the author of the chapter on one of my favorite races, Vineman in Santa Rosa, CA.
