Whatever your definition of success for triathlon, Triathlon Anatomy will help you achieve it." -Victoria Brumfield, Chief of Staff for USA Triathlon "Mark Klion has been helping triathletes optimize their performance and stay injury-free for decades. I've raced side by side with Dr. Klion at the Ironman in Kona, Hawaii. I've also visited his Manhattan office for treatments and advice that kept me at the top of my game. Since the 1980s, Jonathan Cane has helped me and countless other endurance athletes go farther and faster than we ever could have without his training programs. Coach Cane is a legend in the New York City multisport community. I'm thrilled that Triathlon Anatomy brings Klion and Cane together and makes their expertise available to multisport athletes everywhere." -Christopher Bergland, World-Class Endurance Athlete Who Broke a Guinness World Record for Treadmill Running (153.76 miles in 24 hours)
