BIO:

Joe first entered the world of Triathlon in 2001 at the Inaugural Tri Rock. He averaged one tri a year until 2008 when he completed four and the Palo Duro Canyon 50k.  At that point soccer, sand volleyball and mountain biking took a back seat to triathlon.  2009 is his second full season with 11 tri's and 2 marathons.  He loves the excitement of race day and seeing his times improve isn't half bad either.

Down the road he's looking at a 24 hour mountain bike race and a 100k trail run.  Perhaps an Ironman?
