Welcome to Triple Threat Life with Brittany Vermeer
You’re probably asking yourself, “What’s Triple Threat Life?”
Hi, I’m Brittany Vermeer – a writer, photographer, eternal optimist, outdoor lover, and triathlete. I’ve been a writer for 15+ years, and I work with outlets like Triathlete Magazine, Outside Run, 220 Triathlon, IRONMAN, XTERRA, ect.
You’ve probably guessed that “Triple Threat Life” pays homage to my triathlon roots. But it’s about much more than that.
It’s a blog where I write about the intersections between triathlon and life and explore how every swim, bike, and run can provide valuable lessons on the journey toward personal improvement. (Or something along those lines…)
This is my new weekly newsletter that will include blog content, random philosophical thoughts, interesting tidbits, and links to fascinating things I’ve read, listened to, and watched lately.
Sometimes, I’ll write about triathlon. Sometimes, I’ll write about life. Sometimes, I’ll write about both.
The bottom line is that I enjoy helping people, and the best way I can do that is through my writing.
That’s what this newsletter is all about.
The mission is to: inspire, encourage, educate, and empower.
So, if you’re a triathlete, great! If you’re any kind of athlete, welcome. If you’re just a regular human being who likes reading thought-provoking and insightful (hopefully) writing, I’m glad you’re here.
As far as I can tell right now, this newsletter will be a compilation of:
My musings about triathlon and life
Articles that magazines didn't want to pay me to write
Q&A with fascinating people like pro triathletes, authors, experts, coaches, and normal humans with great stories
More that I haven’t figured out yet…
