General Info
General Info: John McGovern, USA Triathlon's Overall Duathlete of the Year for 2004 and 2005, has been competing in triathlons since 1986 and has been a student of the sport since the days before aero bars, strapless pedals and carbon fiber bicycles. During the past 23 years, many trends have come and gone, and John has tried them all. John knows what to do and what not to do to qualify for Ironman Kona, win National Championships and place on the age-group podium at World Championships.
At 45, John continues to finish on the podium, having won the overall title in seven triathlons in 2009 and placing third overall at the venerable Tupper Lake Half-Ironman, recording the fastest bicycle split of 2:16:43. John's quest for knowledge recently led him to Sweden where he spent two weeks training with and learning from Jonas Colting, Clas Bjorling and Bjorn Andersson as they cycled, ran and swam the entire length of Sweden, south to north.
The creator of the American Zofingen ultra-distance duathlon, now in its 6th year, John is also the founder of Catskill Mountain Multisport, a full- service triathlon shop and authorized Cervelo dealer in New Paltz, NY, where he provides F.I.S.T. certified bike fits.

Map location is based off of a geocode of the addressed entered using Google's Google Maps API. If your address does not geocode properly, you can either update the address (we will attempt to re-geocode after any updates to your entry) or you can use Google's geocoding tool found here: http://gmaps-samples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/geocoder/singlegeocode.html to obtain a lat/long for your location and enter that. To use the utility, type in an address that is close to your location and then drag-and-drop the marker to obtain the desired lat/long. If you choose to enter a lat/long, you must check the box on the edit page that says, "override geocode with entered lat/long."
