Background:  A Michigan native, Brad has strong ties to the Motor City and remains a loyal fan of all Detroit sports teams, including the Lions!  Having an athletic background in soccer & playing through college Brad had dreams of a career in the MLS.  The reality of those dreams found him playing in the highly competitive men's beer league post college.  Triathlon was initially taken up for bragging rights among his friends as he sought a way to get himself fit.  After a few years racing as a competitive amateur Brad decided to make a go at triathlon in the professional ranks and specializes in long course events.

Triathlon Accomplishments:  In 2006, he placed 5th pro at IM Wisconsin and took 3rd at the USAT Long Course National Championships in Racine, WI.  In 2008, Brad capped his season with a 9:12:02 clocking at the IM World Championships in Kona, HI (where his 2:49:17 marathon was the 5th fastest of the day) and a 3:59:29 at the IM 70.3 World Championships in Clearwater, FL.  In 2009 he won the Racing for Recovery Half Iron in a new course-record 4:08:30, was 8th at IM Lake Placid in 9:15:27, 2nd at the Harvest Moon Half and raced the IM World Championships in Kona for the third straight year.  Most recently, Brad shattered his own record by 10 minutes at the 2010 Racing for Recovery Half with a winning time of 3:57:55.

In addition to racing, Brad is a nationally recognized abstinence speaker and has spoken to thousands of teens & young adults on the benefits of being physically, emotionally, mentally & spiritually  "buff".
