Louis Therien

Louis has been an avid Duathelete for the past two years. This year he will be competing in a number of Triathlon events in Canada and the United States. Training while living in Gatineau, Quebec Canada can be problematic in the winter months, Louis will typical plan a trip to warmer climates to get some training in. This year he went to Florida and did the Disney Marathon and then Arizona where he had the opportunity to meet other Base athletes Matt Lieto and Linsey Corbin.

My short term goal for this summer in to place in the top 3 for my age group in all of my races and to qualify for the World Championship 70.3. With all the experience I will be acquiring this upcoming summer, along with all the hard work and training that I am and will continue doing, my long term goal is to be able to compete with the best Triathletes in the world in the very near future. I don’t see sacrifice and hard work as a distraction I only use them as a source of motivation.
