About Us

Renton/Seattle, Washington, United States
Two years ago on a night time jog in Manzanita, Oregon, 3 boys huddled underneath a street light, dropped, did 10 pushups, and decided to run a marathon within a year. After the first years of college and many changes with friends it became apparent that there are a few different types of college student. BudandKurt decided their college years would be best spent if they could look back on them and rather than remember or try to remember drunken nights, they could remember the days they spent making themselves better. They will look back and remember the day they became men by pushing themselves beyond expectations. On September 20th in less than 4 hours BudandKurt's goal was accomplished. After having completed the 2009 Lake Chelan Shore to Shore marathon, BudandKurt have decided to put themselves through the test of an Ironman Triathlon. They will complete this challenge and be able to look back knowing that nothing will ever be any harder. The third person under that light, Tyler Smith, has become the greatest support through all of these adventures. We ask you to join Tyler in supporting BudandKurt.

Little Delay, BudandKurt in the Sick Bay

After just getting ourselves comfortable in the water and adjusting our goggles to the perfect tightness, we simultaneously caught bugs. Kurt started to get a terrible sore throat and it quickly progressed into a flu-like firestorm under his chest. As the team player that Bud is, he followed suit and caught some other string of sick that gave him a fever, induced a seven sneeze-streak, and made him cough until his lower back ached. This week wasn't the best for BudandKurt, but we found some positive things during this experience; Kurt is really good and launching things from his throat, Bud can cough and sound almost like a barking seal, and our good friend Tyler does not appreciate the sound of either talent (thanks for your TLC, Ace). Because we have been a little sick for a bit, the training has taken a short break. We took this short break to reflect on exactly what we are putting in our body and how well we are actually training, and we plan to get right back to training very soon with a much more focused and quality program. Look forward for an upcoming post with a video compilation of a routine BudandKurt workout! Thanks again everyone for all of your support!
