ITU WCS Kitzbuhel
ITU WCS Kitzbuhel, Austria It’s 1:39am post race in Austria. I’m wide‐awake (even after taking a sleeping pill) and I thought to myself ‘what better time to write my race report!’ It never used to be like this. I can remember being able to sleep on demand. I used to...
Escape from Alcatraz
Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon I know it’s been a long time since my last race report, but in my previous 2 races I was a little under the weather, so there was really nothing to report as far as good results. However, between now and then, I’ve been able to string together some great...
Looking Back and Forward
The start of a new year is always a great time to reflect on the previous season. It’s the eternal search to become a better athlete, and be the best athlete you can. I try to look at both the positives and negatives throughout the season, harness that and apply it to the next season. I went...
LA International Triathlon - Bevan Docherty

Des Moines ITU World Cup - Bevan
DesMoines, Iowa, probably not a place you think would host the richest Triathlon in the World. However, if they put up the cash, the Worlds best will come. Des Moines in the past has been both good and bad to me. The first 2 years I finished 2nd, and last year a DNF due to sickness. The race win...
7th In Seoul - Bevan Docherty
Normallycoming off a World Championship Series win I would be pumped and keen to keep the momentum going. However, a thirteen‐hour flight back to the US from Sydney was more than enough time to hand me a sore throat and a set‐back in training for a week. Then to add insult to injury, I...
Win in Sydney - Bevan Docherty
Wayback in 2000 I can remember watching the Sydney Olympics on TV as Simon Whitfield ran to an incredible victory in front of the Sydney Opera House. This was one of those defining moments in my life when I said to myself, “I want to be an Olympic Champion!” Little did I know, that 10...
