Nothing to Lose by Chasing a Dream

Okay so Kelly Williamson has had an incredible year, we can all agree to that.  Her performance at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship this year in Vegas is no exception.  She earned 2nd place among the top women in the sport after a season filled with lots of racing and lots of podium finishes:

We cannot wait to watch Kelly battle it out again in Kona this October and take on what will inevitably be the biggest race of her professional career.  Whether you’re training with aspirations of one day making it to an Ironman World Championship race or you’ve already raced one this year, we’d suggest a spoonful of healthy optimism to get you ready…just read Kelly’s Vegas 70.3 race report here or anything on her blog for that matter, and you’ll find the true roots of success come from hard training and the deep founded belief that you really do have “nothing to lose by chasing a dream” as Kelly points out.  We are thrilled to have Kelly as one of our sponsored athletes and could not agree more.  Train Hard. Recover Happy…and chase dreams!
