2022 IM 70.3 Oregon Winner

Born and raised outside of Chicago, Justin took part in his first triathlon at the age of 13 in 2009, before progressing through the ranks to quickly establish himself as one of the premier long-distance racers in the United States.

A breakout season in 2014 earned Justin the USA Triathlon rookie of the year title and the following year he was standing atop Ironman 70.3 podiums in Calgary and Buffalo Springs for the first time.

Since then ‘Big Metz’ has regularly challenged at the front of races, gathering more than 30 top five-finishes and improving year-on-year. In 2021, he stepped up in distance to record a first IRONMAN podium finish in Coeur d'Alene, qualifying for the IM World Championship and beating the existing course record in the process.

In 2022 he won his first IM 70.3 in Oregon and enjoyed four additional podium finishes. Justin says PF&H has been a "game changer" as he's worked with the team to determine his sweat rate, sweat composition and also dial in his carbohydrate needs to ensure cramping and bonking were things of the past!

Known for his consistency and passion on and off the racecourse, triathlon is not only a profession for Metzler, it’s a way of life - one made even better by pursuing it alongside his wife, fellow pro Jeanni and 4-year-old pooch Milli.
