Hearing your name called when you cross the finish line is one of the coolest and most anticipated parts of racing. This week, we hear stories from race announcer, Tony Lugo, who is also a triathlete and former triathlon coach.
Tony announces for Ironman and cycling events around the world. He is a 13-time Ironman Finisher, 4-time Marathon Major’s Finisher, and 1-time Challenge Roth finisher. You would think he has been an athlete all his life, but like many, Tony got his start as an adult running marathons. One day, he saw an Ironman race on TV, decided he wanted to be called an Ironman, and watched every day until he became one in 1999.
Like many triathletes, Tony had the dream, visualized it, and implemented the action plan to make it happen. Even though Tony had to learn to swim, he didn’t see that as a problem. He accepted that challenge and had three first-time experiences in one season.
Tony will tell you he made the varsity team in partying, and we are glad he did as he is the life of the finish line parties.
