News is already spreading about the passing of Steve Larsen. He collapsed during a track workout yesterday in Bend, OR and suffered an apparent heart attack.* He leaves behind his wife, five children, and brother Michael (who recently moved from Boulder out to Bend to be closer to Steve's family).
We recognize Steve as one of the most dominant endurance athletes of our time. Recently, he began racing competitively again after taking a few years off to develop his successful real estate business. He also recently started a new triathlon business called WorldTri.com.
I'm sure other triathletes feel the same way, that Steve was an inspiration for anyone looking to live life to it's fullest.
