Finally Featured!

I love the film about the youngest journalist for Rolling Stones magazine, 'Almost Famous'; thus my alliterative headline for this post. Today, I was featured a headliner for an intensive story on extreme, endurance, athletes (Life!, The Straits Times, 3 May 2013). I was interviewed last Friday over the telephone by Ms Lydia Vasko. Thanks to Coach Wilson Low for the lead-in, and congratulations for his win in the Mixed Team in Queensland last weekend. He was interviewed soon after I met him up for a chat about his race in Kona in 2005. Wilson has completed four world championships for Ironman, half-Ironman, and adventure-racing.
Here's a reflective piece by Perth-based Singaporean, and multiple-Ironman finisher (almost-10) John Cooke.
The online version of the newspaper.
My friend, surgeon Dr Foo Chek Siang was also featured.

So workouts are not the holy grail. Any triathlon coach on the face of the planet can deliver you effective workouts in a timely fashion. But here is the catch: it takes a wise and seasoned triathlon coach to intertwine a triathlete's swim, bike and run routines with changes in lifestyle, health, social obligations and injury status, and an even more knowledgeable coach to diagnose and correct nutritional and biomechanical deficiencies and errors that are impeding an athlete's progress.
