Austin Mitchell

Multisport
Originally, Austin Mitchell grew up in Sonoma County, Ca. Running or cycling ten or more miles to and from school at an early age was very normal. Although Austin didn't like it from ages 12 to 15, he later began to realize that his fitness would be a driving factor in achieving many of his goals later in life.

Leading into High School, Austin began to embrace the discomfort of regular training. He would regularly run 10 or more miles a day to “make weight” for the Sonoma wrestling where he won the league championships for his team in the final match. One of his most memorable moments was realizing he was able to run a sub five minute mile in his freshman year even though he had no interest in running for cross country or track at that time. After High School, Austin started working for a large automotive corporation took three years off from exercise and gained more than 35 lbs of fat. After a serious life changing car accident that nearly ended his life, he decided to stop eating unhealthy, drinking and totally dedicate himself to a healthy lifestyle.
Austin has now complete over 50 running races, including many different, running events, adventure races and triathlons. Medals had begun to pile up, before deciding that he wanted start his own business called FastesTTransition as a full-time Coach/ Personal Trainer while pursuing a career as professional Triathlete in Boulder Co.

He now has years of experience in the fitness industry teaching strength, mobility, nutrition, supplementation, swimming, cycling, and running. Austin is now as a Master Trainer helping people all over the Boulder area.

Goals: Achieve his level 3 USAT coaching certification and create a professional Squad/team of athletes
Goal: Do a Half Ironman in under 4 hours and win Nationals
Random Fact: I have a twin named Karlan(So if I ask your name twice its probably him)

Kevin Weed

Multisport
A true multisport athlete, Kevin has tried nearly all of them. From an early age, he could be seen swinging a tennis racket, parrying with an epee and doing his best Reggie Jackson impressions diving across the diamond.

In the past six years, Kevin has competed in duathlon world championships in Italy, Scotland and Spain. He also qualified for 2012 world championship events in France (duathlon) and New Zealand (triathlon).

Through these activities, he cemented his appreciation for the challenges and camaraderie found in sport.
Kevin joined the Revolution Running Multisport group in its first year where he helped athletes successfully complete first triathlons, increase race distances and achieve new PRs.

Having put in the miles needed to race on the world stage, he knows a cold beer at the finish tastes even better with bugs in your teeth. And better yet, seeing others achieve their own success is a victory in itself.

Kevin coaches athletes to realize their goals and encourages them on the dusty trails during training rides or racing toward wins.

Elena Alarcon

I'm originally from Denver but have lived in Boulder for the past 3 years.

I've been a triathlete for 6 years, but I've been cycling for 12 years. I started cycling because of the MS150 charity ride that my company sponsored, and I rode in that for 6 years before falling in love with triathlon.

I'm taking a bit of a break from triathlon this season (although I did Escape from Alcatraz a couple weeks ago and I'm doing the Boulder Sunrise/Sunset triathlons) and trying some bike racing this season since biking is my absolute favorite part of triathlon.

I've done 2 IM's (France and Cozumel) and 10 70.3's including the 70.3 World Championships in Vegas. My favorite triathlon was probably the Alpe d'Huez Long Course triathlon.

And I love riding uphill, so my main bike races for this season are Mt. Evans and Pikes Peak.
