World Champion Triathlete
Often referred to as "fittest couple on the planet", Greg and Laura Bennett are both elite level triathletes with many world and national titles. Both known for their speed and agility, Greg and Laura are self-coached and train together, splitting their time between Noosa, Australia and Boulder, Colorado.
Greg's accomplishments include winning the Life Time Fitness series three consecutive years ('06, '07 and '08) as well as winning all 5 of the Life Time Fitness Grand Slam Series events in 2007, and finishing 4th as a part of the 2004 Australian Olympic team in Athens, Greece. Most recently Bennett placed second in the 2009 Life Time Fitness series even after being hit by a car in August 2009 at the completion of a training ride of his home town of Boulder, CO.

"Being part of a triathlete couple, staying in contact on long training days is really important. It's nice to know I've got a headset that can survive through sweat and rain so I can keep in touch anywhere, anytime."
