2nd Place Ironman Arizona by Linsey Corbin - Bike Fit by FootWorks!

Corbin_IMAZ
Linsey Corbin had an amazing race at the 2009 Ironman Arizona. She was second only to Sam McGlone, and she had a whopping bike PR split of 5:05:07. That includes a pesky 4 minute penalty too! Linsey came to FootWorks to get her bike re-fit following her Kona experience in October. Things obviously came together for her.

Congrats Linsey, here's to Kona 2010!

Back from Ironman Canada

2009's Ironman Canada proved to be a tough race for me. Temps were in the 90's, but I think the real problem was the intense smoke from nearby forest fires. The mountains that line the entire race course were nearly obscured from view at times. I wound up finishing an hour behind my planned time, and I ended up in the medical tent getting a couple bags of fluid dripped into me.

Congrats to all my friends and clients who also raced! It was great seeing you all out there.

So, I am now really glad to be back in the office. If you call or email I will be able to respond quickly.

Simon Whitfield at FWPT

Two time Olympic Triathlon medalist Simon Whitfield came to FootWorks Physical Therapy this past July and was outfitted with a set of custom orthotics. What does he have to say? "...brilliant. honestly. really impressed." "...my knee tracks much straighter and power is there."

I don't flaunt what people say much, but Simon's response really made my day.

You don't have to be an Olympian or a Pro cyclist to benefit from custom orthotics or having your bike properly fitted. Read more in the Services menu.
