A:  Duathlon National Champion, Age Group World Champion for Ironman and 70.3

A:   I took on my first triathlon coaching client in 2010.

A:   I am a middle and high school track coach and love working with athletes on technical events.

A:   I started coaching high school track in college because I love track and field and sharing that passion.

A:   I want my athletes to enjoy the whole adventure, with that I want them to understand that there are so many more ways to get fit and fast that don’t have to include soley riding a TT bike or running on roads or swimming in a pool.

A:   Getting to race in Kona with one of my very first athletes. Being able to share the process with her was beyond my wildest dreams!

A:   I went to a race in Vermont a couple of summers ago because a couple of my athletes were racing and there was big T3 presence which I love to experience. When I was setting up my transition area I realized I had forgotten my cycling shoes. My athletes got to watch me pivot on the fly!

A:   Watching the progress throughout the season and then from season to season. Helping people through tough spots in life and helping them realize how powerful they are!

A:   Have fun! We get to do this, we don’t have to do this!

A:   Pizza before big rides and races always! Coke and salt can save a race!

A:   hmmmm that’s a toughie, I’ve built some doozy’s on Zwift. I also love speed workouts for running as I came from a running background and think they break up the monotony or long distance training.

A:   hahaha I love to assign long progression runs, but as I’ve gotten older I do not enjoy doing them!

A:   The community and energy are unmatched!

A:   I feel so lucky to be able to help grown ups go out and play every single day!
