Edwin Croucher, Ironman Lake Placid Finisher!

I read a lot from Joe Friel and tried to gain training knowledge from anywhere and anyone I could.  For reasons I…

Ironman Lake Placid was my 3rd Ironman and 1st wearing the EN colors.  I had my best build to date for an Ironman by staying motivated and relatively injury free.  The only modification I had to make was a significant reduction in swim volume the last few weeks due to a sore shoulder from falling off my bike.  When I…

To start off my family did not want to go to Lake Placid and reminded me of that fact every day of the trip except race day. My kids prefer warm weather and beaches. The cold 45 degree evenings in Lake Placid were not what their idea of fun. PreRace We flew into Albany on…

I wrote this RR for the many people who supported Team ReserveAid and for my EN family. So it is a long (probably boring) documentation of my entire race. Here’s the Executive Summary if you just want the summary: I swam the best I ever have (top 21% vs my previous best top 30%), crushed…

I’ll start off by saying that I came into this season with a much different perspective than I did to 2012. For those of you who didn’t read last year’s report, I’ll summarize it by saying that I was dumb enough to sign up for an IM when I had newborn twins and a 17-month…
