Brad Seng

University of Colorado Triathlon Head Coach, Professional Triathlete and Inspirational Speaker

As a Michigan native, Brad has strong ties to the Motor City and remains a loyal fan to all Detroit sports teams, including the Lions! Having an athletic background in soccer and playing through college, Brad had dreams of a career in the MLS. The reality of those dreams found him playing in the highly competitive men’s beer league post-college. Triathlons were initially taken up for bragging rights among his friends as he sought a way to keep himself physically fit. After a few years racing as a competitive amateur, Brad decided to make a go of triathlons in the professional ranks and specializes in long-course events.

Joel joined the army in 1998; motivated to make the service a 20-year career. During his third Iraq combat deployment, he was injured by a road-side blast that left him with a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). He returned home injured, feeling helpless, and he was confined to his wheelchair. He consistently endured bouts of dizziness and blackouts as well as dealing with double-vision; making it difficult for him to focus. His TBI also affected his body’s ability to regulate body temperature and was always at risk of over-heating, and he could not control nor feel his legs. He was on 15 different medications and the side-effects caused him to slur my speech and they significantly disrupted my ability to think and concentrate.

Ashley Acord

Muay Thai

I knew from a young age that my path would eventually lead me to martial arts. My fascination with its balance of beauty and violence captured the essence of how I felt I was meant to live each day. I loved every form of martial art I had the opportunity to experience, but knew without a doubt that I had discovered my true element in my very first Muay Thai class. The passion, respect, and camraderie I have found in Muay Thai has enriched my life, and made me a better person. Fighting has given me the opportunity to strive for goals I never thought possible, encounter competitors and legends in the sport who help me to grow and learn, and give back to the next generation of students and competitors who will continue to reach new heights in the sport.

Guilherme Ferreira Campos

Professional Triathlete

Since very young, Guilherme was always very connected to all kinds of sports. He grew up playing everything from basketball to martial arts, but it was soccer that he played for several years until the junior level. During his soccer years playing as right wing, he developed some good endurance and was always one of the fastest soccer players for the clubs he played for. All of those years in the field gave him not only the discipline, commitment, passion and hunger characteristic of any athlete, but the soul of an athlete. After a few years away from training (and sports in general), he decided to start running and train for some road race events, duathlons, and aquatlons at his hometown of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Triathlons were naturally then, the next step to go.
