Background:  Daniel competed in his very first triathlon at the age of 12 and has loved the sport ever since!  2010 is Daniel's second year as a pro member of Team Sport Beans/NTTC and just his 3rd year as a pro.   In 2008, he was honored as USA Triathlon's Elite Male Rookie of the Year, only a year after being named USA Triathlon’s Male Age-Group Triathlete of the Year.  His rookie pro season in 2008 was highlighted by six wins, including the Spirit of Morgantown Half Iron in a course-record 4:05:23.  He also placed 2^nd at Memphis in May (1:47:53), 3^rd at the Muskoka Ironman 70.3, and 4^th at Kansas IM 70.3.  In 2009, Daniel suffered broken ribs in a bike crash at the Kansas IM 70.3, but still managed to record ten wins during the season.  He also placed 9^th at the Florida IM 70.3 and 7^th at the Steelhead IM 70.3.  He capped his season with a 7^th place finish at the Amica Pro Sprint Championship in Arizona.

I not only enjoy racing, I love being a multisport coach.
