Hi,I’m Brittany Vermeer

I’m a triathlete and journalist. Ever since I crossed my first finish line in 2019, I’ve been completely hooked on this sport. For me, swim, bike, and run isn’t just a means to an end but a way of life. It’s a way to connect with the great outdoors, join a community, and discover that you’re capable of far more than you think.

As a journalist, I get to connect with some of the top coaches, experts, and professional athletes in the world, and I want to share everything I’ve learned with you. My goal is for Triple Threat Life to be a trusted resource and supportive community that will fuel your passion for the sport and help you achieve your goals.

  • “Brittany consistently delivers engaging, well-researched, and timely articles. Her copy is clean and her straightforward style has helped us create meaningful content that serves our company’s interests and meets the needs of our athletes.”

    - Jennifer Ward, former IRONMAN Editorial Director -

  • "This is the perfect start to finish guide to getting ready for your first Ironman 70.3 race. The distance is the perfect blend of speed and endurance. And Brittany's book is ideal to get you ready for that challenge by providing you with what to do and what not to ensure you arrive at the start line fit and ready to go. The best part is she takes into account what for most is a busy life outside of triathlon and gives you tips to keep it all in balance. Well done Brittany!"

    - Mark Allen, 6-Time IRONMAN World Champion-

  • "Read Brittany's book just before my first 70.3, and it was SO helpful! There's a ton of useful information about setting up transition and preparing for the race, but the thing that helped me the most was how she talks about your mindset going into the race. My race was particularly difficult, because of bad weather, and there were quotes from this book that stuck with me, particularly this quote: 'We don’t train so the race isn’t hard. We train so we can persevere when the race gets hard.'"
