I hope you are having an amazing February! BASE Real Bars are back in stock! It's amazing how great these bars taste - especially when they are fresh from the factory.
As a valued partnered, I am super excited to offer you our first promotion of the year for bars. This is a simple special - buy 2 boxes of bars, get 1 free. You must add 3 boxes into your shopping cart for this promotion to work. You can add any flavor of bar. Go to: https://www.baseperformance.com/products/base-bars?add= and use the code: BUY2GET1
This will come out to $72 for three boxes of bars, plus shipping. A 33% savings compared with your standard 20% discount!
If you want free shipping, you can add one jar of RKT Fuel, or two bags of Hydro, and this will get you over the $100 free shipping (in the US).
Please forward this on to your entire team of athletes! This can be shared with any and all!
As always, please feel free to reply if you have any additional questions.
I want to thank everyone who has been standing by in the year 2020 and I hope we can work together again in 2021. I'm honored for the loyalty my athletes have shown and want to invite others to join us in 2021 for some great training and racing. If you are following me on Facebook, please share with your friends and family so I can increase my followers. My goal is to have 1500. Whether you are doing your first 5k or first sprint triathlon or trying to complete your Ironman Legacy events or training for your first 100 mile ultramarathon, Fortius can help you achieve your goals. For the holiday season and through the end of January if you sign up for a 6 month (or more) customized training plan you will get two 45 minute one on one coaching sessions.
What’s the route for tomorrow’s ride?
Looking for clearer air with the cool kids
If anyone is interested, I am headed to Malibu tomorrow to do a mile swim and 4 hour bike ride. Be in water no later than 7:30 and get on bike shortly there after. Bike ride will be 60 to 70 percent effort.

This Saturday Shane Haas will be competing at the Ironman World Championship in St. George seeking his 2nd Ironman finish after doing Santa Rosa in 2019.

Getting to the start line isn’t guaranteed for everyone so the best you can do is put your head down, do the work, make a few sacrifices along the way. Shane learned quickly that some days were just gonna be tough and once he got through Mulholland Challenge he knew he had what it takes to overcome a tough day.

Fortius Coaching athlete, Fred Arnold is ready to compete at World Championship in St. George this Saturday.

After a Fred’s last Ironman race: “I have learned that you must have patience and you can't fast track success.” With a humble attitude Fred realizes he will have to be relentless and persevere to have a successful day in St. George.

Fred attributes his success to getting a coach and asking for help to become a better athlete and doing the work. Fred’s journey toward his 5th Ironman finish comes from setting a challenging goal and then surrounding himself with like-minded, disciplined athletes.

This weekend Ruth Arnush will be competing at the Ironman World Championship in St. George and aiming to finish her 4th Ironman. There’s no challenge Ruth will not accept after doing her first Ironman in Arizona she followed it up with IM Lake Placid and IM Mont Tremblant. It wasn’t an easy journey getting to this point and Ruth is determined to cross the finish line!

“My journey to IM Saint George can be summarized with my passwords over the past year: Ironmom65, Broken2021, and Recovery2022. I would not be here without my medical team, Coach G, Fortius teammates, and daughters. Hoping for the best on Saturday!”

Fortius Coaching’s swim workouts are paying off for our athletes. At today’s 1000 yard swim time trial we had 8/12 athletes who set new personal bests even in this post-Covid era. With just attending two 90 minute sessions per week with the team and their other independent swims they have been able to consistently work on their form, speed and pacing in order to become better endurance swimmers to succeed at long distance triathlon.

It’s been almost 14 years since I started coaching swim workouts at .pool and morning sunrises never get old.

Congratulations to Peter Sidhu on conquering his first 70.3 last weekend in Oceanside and setting a new personal best at the LA Marathon today! Peter set out to complete these events knowing the how difficult it would be and he made it happen.

11/06/2021

It’s been a difficult year for everyone and it’s important to slow down and appreciate all the hard work you’ve done this year to keep yourself and your family healthy. It’s ok to take a moment and just enjoy being. As we wind down our year of training and look forward to another year of events and goals we want to achieve it’s important to be kind to ourselves in order rejuvenate this off-season.

My professional growth as a coach and an athlete never ends. Everyday is an opportunity to be a better athlete and coach. I’ve been helping triathletes and runners realize their endurance goals as an USA Triathlon certified coach since March 22, 2008. I am also an ASCA Certified Level 2 Swim Coach and previously a Level 2 USA Cycling coach.

At Fortius Coaching we are a family and a team striving to become stronger, together. I still have a few spots available for coaching in the 2022 season and our swim program also has a few spots remaining for this fall’s program. Gerardo Barrios

Be Stronger, Be Bolder

I was a public school administrator and I left to become a triathlon and running coach full time. Eight years later and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I strive to work with people who want to be better at what they do and pursue a fitness as a way of life through endurance sports. Fortius Coaching is a team of athletes with common interests and goals.
