A recent trip to Hawaii was the first time in many years that my husband and I have been to Kona when NOT going for the Ironman World Championship. It was an actual vacation. Yeah! I was thrilled to be going back to Hawaii, because I’d have an actual playmate. See, when he is in Kona for the race, I’m pretty much on my own,…

Between Dana and I, we have been to the Big Island of Hawaii at least 15 times and probably more. We have been both for vacations, including one wedding – mine – and the Ironman World Championships. The only conclusions to be reached are that WE LOVE HAWAII and that we really know it inside out and all the great places to have food and…

Whether your triathlete’s last race of the season was Kona, a local race, or is coming up at Rev3 Florida, it all brings us to the same place – off-season. No matter who you talk to…pros, coaches, your family doctor, or other triathletes, they will all say taking time off is a necessity. Not only for the triathlete, but for the family, who has also…

While Ironman Kona is a HUGE deal for the triathletes and they will be quite preoccupied leading up to the race, this means that you, trisupporter, need to find activities to do to occupy your time. You can easily find the most popular tourist things to do and in fact, you can find them right here on the TriWivesClub. We have done multiple articles on…

Do triwives and triathletes pick race locations for the same reason? What are their favorite race venues and why? Which races are on their wish lists? Well, I recently attended the Ironman 70.3 World Championships in Mont Tremblant and decided to take full advantage of being around all these triwives and triathletes at the same time. What better time to find the answers to these…

Okay, I know I have it good and I’m not complaining at all… I’m going to Kona for 12 days for the Ironman World Championships and a bit of vacation on the side. Granted, I will be working for both TriWivesClub and TravelingMom, but I’m sure I’m going to find time to play and party. Plus, I have tons of friends and family who will…
Continue readingThe TriWives are very pleased to post this article by a close friend of the family, Martin Avidan, a Kona age group qualifier. We enjoyed his writing so much, we will have to ask him to share more. Recently I went riding with a friend and asked what his HR was (it’s always lower than mine..).

The day before the race, while all the athletes are off their feet resting and feasting, it is the perfect time for a little trisupporter TLC. Last year in Kona, while our athletes all rested, triple checked their race bags, quadruple checked their bikes, sat, ate, drooled over the bikes entering bike check in, and repeated, we high-tailed it out of there. In the past,…
