Jason West

Jason started triathlons at age 16 by getting involved in local races. He continued to race through his time at Penn State where he earned a B.S. in Kinesiology. After graduating he moved to Boulder to pursue a career as a professional triathlete. He has been racing ever since across many disciplines of the sport from short course to Middle Distance. Jason had a huge 2023 and finished the season ranked 3rd in the world and has become known as one of the quickest runners in the sport. Jason’s focus is on the T100 Pro Tour and 70.3 World Championships. 

Jason loves to cook for him and his wife. He incorporates a simple trifecta of protein, carbohydrate and vegetable in every meal. It’s important to him to put the best quality fuel in his body, ensuring he’s simultaneously recovering from one workout while fueling the next. He has a daily goal of consuming 1g of protein per pound of body weight and his partnership with GoodLife makes this goal so much easier to achieve. Jason has especially enjoyed trying new cuts of beef, like the Bavette and flank steak. His beloved pups Lola and Winnie are never far away, hoping they get a taste of GoodLife Proteins;)

Jason's Favorite Recipe

Steak and Pasta. 

While this recipe uses Certified Piedmontese Flat Iron Steak, Jason also loves to make this with Certified Piedmontese Beef Italian Sausage. Follow these steps to your next favorite meal: 

- Take a baking tray and add cherry tomatoes, a brick of feta cheese, garlic, and a little butter too. Roast in the oven until tomatoes are softened.

- Meanwhile, boil your choice of pasta and sauté your kale in a pan.

- Throw your steaks on the grill. 

- Pull your tray of tomatoes and cheese out of the oven and squish it all up, mixing everything together. Add the kale and pasta to this mixture.

- Go get your perfectly cooked steaks off the grill and top your pasta dish with sliced steak.
