He has finished more than one hundred races, including ten IRONMANs, several 70.3 Half IRONMAN competitions, and Olympic distance events.

A graduate of Florida State University, Brent resides in Atlanta with his wife and two kids.

THE PEASE BROTHERS

The Pease brothers have completed more than 75 races together since 2011, including four IRONMAN triathlons and countless other endurance races. In October 2018, the brothers made history as the first brother duo to complete the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona, Hawaii. Together they empower athletes with disabilities to compete in the multi-sport and endurance world through their nonprofit organization. The Kyle Pease Foundation promotes success for young persons with disabilities by providing assistance to meet their individual needs through sports and competition. Since its inception, it has championed more than one hundred athletes across sixty events. Through speaking engagements, the Pease brothers share their message of inclusion and help to define what is truly possible.

“As an endurance athlete myself, I still marvel when I witness an athlete who performs in a superhuman manner. The fight and spirit of the Pease Brothers is as remarkable as the connection and love they have for each other.”

HECTOR PICARD, Motivational speaker, Don’t Stop Living, LLC

“Wholesome and pure, Kyle and Brent model how to persevere, love, and live. These two brothers are amazing souls. Prepare to be inspired to inspire!”

“When Rick and I began racing, we hoped and dreamed that others would someday follow in our tire tracks and footprints. Many years later, we now look around in amazement as the assisted running movement spreads around the world. We are sorry we couldn’t be there to see them cross the finish line. Kyle and Brent’s story of success brings me nearly as much joy as when Rick and I cross the finish line ourselves.”
