About IMRoycer81

Richmond, Virginia, United States
Thanks for visiting! I'm a civil litigator at KPMLaw. I attended Cornell where I swam IM and Breastroke. In 2007 I filled the void of swimming retirement with triathlon. In my first tri I thought, "holy sh*t this is painful" and "when can I do it again?" Things escalated quickly and my first half iron was in Augusta 2009 and my first full iron was Louisville 2011. Since 2007 I've been chasing a dream of qualifying for the World Champs in Kona, Hawaii. Prior to September 2017 this blog focused on attempts (and failures) to achieve an elusive KQ. I got the monkey off my back in my 10th Ironman at Chattanooga in 2017. I was fortunate to qualify again in 2022. There is always room to improve, and I look forward to putting in the work to become a consistent podium finisher. I couldn't do any of this without my amazing family. I am lucky to train in a fantastic triathlon town with inspirational athletes. My job, training, and daughters keep me busy, but I update as often as I can. I'm always willing to share the knowledge I've picked up along the way. Thanks for reading!

Look what the Aero Fairy Delivered

My latest bike upgrade arrived today.  My Zipp 808 Firecrest Carbon Clincher front wheel came in.  I am really looking forward to pairing this with the Zipp 900 Disc that my sponsors (mom and dad) got me for Christmas and getting it out on the road. I also ordered the Zipp Beyond Black Decal Kit for a more stealth look on the wheels.  I will post pictures of the new race setup on my Speed Concept when I transfer over the new decals.


I will post a review on the wheels after I race on them in my first race of the season in late April.
