TJ Tollakson

TJ Tollakson has never had a problem demonstrating he's a successful athlete.  The problem was picking which sport in which to showcase his athleticism.  When the former college soccer player chose to focus on triathlon in 2003, the three-in-one sport seemed to fit.  Tollakson has since made a name for himself in the Ironman event, taking back-to-back titles in the Eagleman 70.3 and Ironman Lake Placid in 2011.  Watch out for this triple threat!  In addition to pro-triathlete, Tollakson has industrial engineer on his resume and entrepreneur on his business card as the owner of his own sporting goods company, Ruster Sports.
