TRIATHLETES HAVING A GREAT YEAR WITH 40 MAJOR PODIUM FINISHES

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 8, 2010 -- Kona, Hawaii • October 9, 2010 – Matt Dixon, former professional triathlete and elite swimmer turned coach and fitness consultant, is expecting big performances from his 6 professional and 3 amateur athletes as they head into Saturdays race.

With a Masters of Science in Clinical and Exercise Physiology and as a contributing Editor to Lava and Inside Triathlon Magazines, Matt has established himself and Purplepatch Fitness as an innovator in performance fitness and health training.

This years team includes Chris Lieto, Linsey Corbin, Luke Bell, Tyler Stewart, Meredith Kessler, Rachel Joyce, Pat Romano, Sami Inkinen and Gilad Rotem. Each athlete comes into the event with a different background and a different journey, but they all share one common thread. They’ve been following a reduced volume, increased specificity program that is unique to Matt Dixon’s purplepatch performance training methodology.

Dixon notes, “Each of our athletes will concentrate on providing a strong individual performance on the back half of each swim, bike and run. The philosophy is that if an athlete is overly tired going into an event, fatigue will show up on the back end. The number one priority for them coming to Kona is to arrive healthy, fit and fresh, with ZERO injuries, so that they can do something exceptional on race day.”
