By the way, who is this guy, Alden?

I'm a dad, husband, coach, teacher, athlete. I love to be active and outside and definitely get a bit grouchy sitting inside all day if that happens. 

In my earlier years of endurance sports, I didn't know how this journey would turn out. Like many triathletes, I saw a broadcast of a race and thought it would be pretty cool to do an Ironman race at some point. And also, I met my wife in a triathlon class in college so I guess you could say the sport has really blessed me. The scenes from the Boston Marathon always motivated me and I thought it would be pretty great to race in that one time. 

I ran my first marathon in 2006 and things started to move along from there. While in the NYC area, IM NYC hit the calendar for its one and only time so I jumped right into triathlon. Running has always been something enjoyable and relaxing to me. I never considered myself to be a fast marathoner. Goals were set, adjusted, met, and set again and I've worked my way down to the 2:41 range. 

​Training is a calm place for me. Somewhere I can focus on just what needs to be done to execute a certain race. Over the years, I've qualified for and raced the IM 70.3 World Championships several times, raced 9:08 at IM Arizona and competed in the IM World Championships in Kona. One of my highlights was breaking the tape at Rev3 Williamsburg in 2017 with my family. In 2023 I also earned the USAT National Championship for my age group at the 70.3 distance. 

There is still work to be done and more chances to toe the line. But I'm looking forward to each one of them and everything in between. 

Now that you know about me, it's time for me to learn about you. Let's get started!!
