Linsey Corbin, a sponsored athlete of Trigger Point Technologies, has been at a training camp in Maui for almost ten days with Coach Lance, Chris Lieto, Kim Loeffler, Brent McMahon and Aaron Altura! So far the camp has exceeded her expectations in so many ways.

One of her many highlights of the trip included seeing the migratory humpback whales. Perhaps even more remarkable, while swimming in the ocean, she could actually hear them calling out to each other under the water.

Because her fitness and wellbeing have progressed further than she had anticipated, Linsey has now decided to race Ironman Arizona. Yes! She will be toeing the line for the Ironman 6 weeks from tomorrow. This was not something that she had planned, however the more she thought about it the more excited she became.

We at Trigger Point are all look forward to seeing her race. She is a strong competitor and now coming from this amazing camp she will be rejuvenated and ready to perform to her best abilities. Watch out Ironman Arizona here comes Linsey Corbin.





Congratulations to Haley Johnson for her 52nd finish in the 10k pursuit World Championships!

Haley in frontHaley Johnson (Lake Placid, NY) a Trigger Point Therapy athlete, sponsor and avid user of TP Technologies methodology and products “was the only US competitor in the Women’s 10K Pursuit, starting in 53rd position, and finishing 52nd. Johnson finished with five penalties, 7:04.3 behind Andrea Henkel of Germany who won another Gold medal to go with the one she won in yesterday’s Sprint. Henkel again shot clean, finishing in 28:56.

Johnson stayed near 50th position throughout the competition, picking up single penalties in the first three stages. In the final standing stage, she missed the first and last shots, resulting in two penalty loops, which dropped her back to 53rd at the finish. She commented on the final shooting stage, “I knew where everyone was as I started the fourth loop. Henkel was closing in on me. (If Henkel lapped Johnson, the US athlete would have been out of the competition). I pushed hard on the whole loop to keep ahead of her. When I came in to shoot, I was very tired and missed those shots. It was a good race for me.”” www.usbiathlon.com
