Jason Brahim – Pittsburgh Regional Team 

Jason Brahim | 25-29Jason is relatively new to triathlon. He grew up playing many sports including; hockey, soccer, golf, football, baseball, and he skied. While in college at Washington and Jefferson, Jason began to run. He spent the summer of his sophomore year at Parris Island, S.C. with the Marine Corps. This is where he was introduced to running...and he ran a lot. From there, he completed a few marathons and last year marked his first year of triathlon. His first tri was Eagleman Ironman 70.3. Jason became hooked and raced Whirlpool Steelhead 70.3, and the Nation's Triathlon. His strength is on the bike and with the help of his coach, Erin Kummer of Team Timex, Jason hopes to have a breakthrough season. Jason is very excited about the opportunity to race as a representative of the Full Throttle Team and there is no doubt that Scott and the Gang will help him achieve his goals.
