About the Author
Carlos Civit has been involved in sports since he was a young kid, and triathlons have been his passion since 1994. As a triathlete, he has trained and competed both as a professional and as an age grouper. As a Coach, he has trained all levels of athletes from those who wanted to compete at elite level or just for the personal challenge. Highlights: At the age of 9 he participated in his first running event, the 11 km “La Cursa del Corte Ingles” in Spain. This first race was a precursor to a prolific endurance sports career which has included multiple marathons, ultra marathons, sprint, Olympic, ½ Ironman and Ironman distance triathlons. In his opinion, his greatest sports accomplishments are winning his age group in his first ever marathon at the age of 17 and to finish 100 km run at the age of 19. He was selected by the Spanish national team in the ITU long distance World Championship and participated in the Exterra World competition. He has recently been a two time indoor cycling presenter at the IDEA World Fitness convention in Las Vegas, NV.
