Q&A with NEW Life Time Fitness Minneapolis Triathlon Race Director Dave Schutz
By Darin Wieneke
The Life Time Fitness Minneapolis Triathlon is celebrating its 10th Anniversary this year. If you have experienced this race in the past, you know that Life Time is to Minnesota triathlon what the Academy Awards is to actors. Lifetime is about as glitzy and glamorous as it gets in our triathlon scene. There is a buzz that you start to feel at packet pick-up at the Minneapolis Convention Center, it continues the morning of the race when you witness the sea of bikes in transition, and it reaches a near peak when some of the top professional triathletes in the world toe the line....

ED. - We had lunchies with triathlete/embroidery guy/amazingly good rookie nordic skier Bendon O'Flanagan last Monday. Gosh, he's a cool guy. And one of the most honorable dudes you'll ever meet. Last August we posted a story about Brendon's confrontation with a litterer. For those who may have missed that story, here it is:
"Hey!" Brendon called in a controlled voice; neither too loud, nor too combative. He walked briskly toward the escaping vehicle.
The taxi driver, who was backing out of a space in the Cub parking lot, stopped and turned his face to his summoner.
Their eyes met.....

Going Off Course - Dave Schutz is a really nice guy. He is also the recently appointed director of the Life Time Fitness Minneapolis Triathon and the founder/director of Trinona, which was named 2010 Triathletes Choice Race of the Year. He has a smoking hot wife and rad son named Kaler, age 14 months.
Life is good, right?....
