    BIO

    Chris is a three-time Ironman Champion and former U.S. National Ironman Champion. Year after year Chris’s discipline and dedication to the sport of triathlon have paid off. With an impressive 2007 season including a 6th place finish at the Ironman World Championships, Chris is looking forward to an even better 2008 season.

    In addition to training and racing it has always been important for Chris to have balance in his life. Chris has successfully created that balance with work and family and through the launch of Base Performance Nutrition. Chris has had years of learning what works for him and what doesn’t work and he wants to share his successes with those who are also passionate about endurance sports and active life.
