The name of my first ever organized century ride was the "World’s Toughest Century," and with almost 10,000 feet of climbing over 105 miles, the event lived up to its name for my limited cycling experience. It also revealed areas where I was woefully underprepared.
If you’re considering a metric or imperial century ride this year, or another long-distance organized cycling event, we've collected advice from seasoned coaches to ensure that you’re still friends with your bike when you cross the finish line.

The third annual Island House Invitational Triathlon will return on November 17th & 18th, 2017 for a new two-day, three-race format with 30 of the world’s best professional triathletes. The race will be held in the Bahamas on the private island of Highbourne Cay, Exuma. World-class athletes from both short and long course backgrounds will go head-to-head in what is becoming known as one of the most exciting races in the world.

Two time IRONMAN® champion and four time IRONMAN®70.3® champion, Sarah Piampiano, kicks off her 2017 season at this weekend’s IRONMAN 70.3 Liuzhou in China. Piampiano plans to race in three of the five IRONMAN 70.3 races held in China this year, in her new role as an IRONMAN ambassador. As an IRONMAN ambassador, Piampiano will promote racing in China and share her experiences of traveling and racing in the region. Piampiano raced last November at the debut IRONMAN 70.3 Xiamen where she placed second.
Sarah, aka The Ginja Ninja, is one of the premier triathletes competing in the pro women’s field. Coming off of a successful 2016 season with five podium finishes, including 1st place at IRONMAN New Orleans 70.3, Racine 70.3 and Vineman, Sarah came away with an impressive 7th place finish at the IRONMAN World Championships in Kona. Sarah is looking forward to building on last year’s strong season and is kicking off 2017 in partnership with team Zealios.
