TRVL Train™

About

The trusted home for endurance race travel.

The trusted home for endurance race travel: surprising, rigorously true science that helps athletes find their race and chase their passion worldwide.

TRVL Train helps endurance athletes do two things well: find the right race anywhere in the world, and understand what actually makes them faster when they get there.

The Race Finder matches you to races on the dimensions that decide your day — swim, bike, run, climate, and travel — through the TRVL Train Score™. Race Science is the other half: surprising-but-true explainers that lead with the data and close with what to do about it, with no hype and no marketing dressed up as fact.

We’re independent and not affiliated with any race organizer. The methodology behind the Score is published openly — that openness is the point.

The athlete behind it

I built TRVL Train as the tool I wanted and couldn’t find. I race sprint, Olympic, middle-distance and full-distance triathlons, and have qualified for the 70.3 World Championship three times. I’ve raced under both the IRONMAN® and Challenge Family® banners. I have traveled across more than 50 countries on 6 continents to make friends, find new challenges and chase starting lines. Every score, every article, and every route comes from that vantage: an age-group athlete who travels to race, and who wants the honest version, not the marketing one. This is my passion, and I love sharing it with everyone.
