AFTER 17 YEARS OF RACING AND 14 IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP PERFORMANCES, LINSEY CORBIN WALKED AWAY FROM THE SPORT OF TRIATHLON IN THE FALL OF 2022. SHE NOW SPENDS HER DAYS AS A CULINARY CREATIVE WITH HAZEL & BLUE. WHEN NOT AT WORK, SHE RUNS FOR JOY, STRENGTH TRAINS, SKIS THE BACKCOUNTRY, FLY FISHES, OR TRAVELS THE WORLD IN SEARCH OF DELICIOUS FOOD AND NEW ADVENTURES.
AS A TRIATHLETE, LINSEY WON EIGHT IRONMAN TITLES AND ACHIEVED TOP AMERICAN HONORS AT BOTH IRONMAN AND 70.3 IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP EVENTS. SHE SET AN AMERICAN IRONMAN RECORD AND CROSSED THE IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPS FINISH LINE MORE TIMES THAN ANY PROFESSIONAL AMERICAN FEMALE HAS BEFORE.
HER SOLE VISION AS A TRIATHLETE WAS TO TRANSCEND THE BOUNDARIES OF HER SPORT AND REPRESENT THE IMPORTANCE OF A SOUND MIND, BODY, AND DIET IN ACHIEVING DREAMS.
IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE, EXPLORE HER PHOTOS, WATCH HER VIDEOS, READ HER BLOG, READ HER PRESS, COOK HER FOOD, AND ENJOY THE JOURNEY.
““I think happiness comes from following your heart and doing what you love. If you aren’t pursuing your passion, then it’s difficult to put in the work needed to succeed. I quit a job at a dog store to pursue my dream of being a professional triathlete. I’m glad I did. If you’re doing what you love –worst case scenario– you’ll enjoy the journey. ”
