Who is it for?
Open to hard-working, focused and dedicated adult male and female triathletes. Omnivore, Vegan or Vegetarian athletes are encouraged, as well as those with food sensitivities or intolerances. There are no “prescribed foods” – you work with what you can eat and like. Participation in a prior OT program is not required; but an “all-in” attitude and focus is required to make the most of this program. Participants must agree to dedicate five weeks to the program and pledge to make this a priority.
Applications are accepted through March 15th at 11:59pm ET.
