Stefanie Clutten

Stefanie is a 39-year-old Physician Assistant. She was born in the Lansing area and resides in Holt with her husband and two children. Stefanie spent most of her youth doing gymnastics before adding tennis and track in high school. She completed her first triathlon in 2009 when her husband (and LTT teammate) Ian signed up for one and she didn't want to miss out on the experience. They have been doing them together ever since. Stefanie loves fitness, variety in her training and pushing the boundaries. She has a passion for trail running and finished a 50-mile trail race in December 2018 and a very challenging 100k trail race in Cape Town, South Africa in 2021. Stefanie is excited to continue her focus on triathlon this year and utilize her training to put together some faster sprint and olympic distance races. In her free time, she loves being active with her family. On the weekends they can be found hiking, biking or skiing together or at their lake cottage most summer weekends. Stefanie has a passion for traveling, both within the United States and abroad. Combining travel and exercise is an objective on many trips. The past few years she has enjoyed several destination races/ vacations, having competed in Utah, Arizona and South Africa.

2023 GOALS

My primary goal for this year is to improve upon my Age Group National Sprint performance from 2022 and move into the top 10 and qualify for Age Group Worlds. I look forward to lots of training with my teammates and pushing each other. I always enjoy expanding my network of like-minded athletes and be a great example for our community and sponsors. My goal is to always show my children by example that fitness is a way of life, not an optional choice. I'm excited to continue to watch my kids complete in local triathlons and running events.
