    The Pilot Who Trains Like a Pro: How Joseph Miuccio Balances 35,000 Feet with Ironman, Leadville, and a Sub-3 Marathon

    The Pilot Who Trains Like a Pro: How Joseph Miuccio Balances 35,000 Feet with Ironman, Leadville, and a Sub-3 Marathon

    Joseph Miuccio spends his life at 35,000 feet, and somehow still logs the training hours for Leadville, Ironman, and marathon racing. 


    Joey has run a 2:56 marathon, a 4:45 half ironman, and he’s a Leadville 100 finisher. Now, he can add Ironman finisher to his resume, as he recently completed the Ironman Arizona in 9:46:37, an extremely impressive sub 10 hour feat coming in 136 overall in a field of over 1,200 racers. 


    Online, he has an impressive following of over 455,000 on Instagram where he documents his racing, lifestyle, and career as a flight instructor and commercial pilot. He also offers 1-on-1 fitness coaching via his online profile. 


    He’s polished, competitive, and backs it up with impressive results in multiple domains. Growing up, sports were a key component in his fitness journey. He grew up playing every sport imaginable: baseball, soccer, basketball, football, wrestling, surfing and even bowling. When in high school, he focused on wrestling, which likely built in his work ethic for the future.


    He has shown what’s possible while holding down a demanding career, exploring ultras, and going sub-10 in an Ironman. The question now is: what’s your version of that?
