<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Triathlon coaching isn't just for elite athletes -- and it doesn't have to be complicated. Whether your goal is to finish your first triathlon, move up to a longer distance, or improve your performance, you'll get there more easily and effectively with a plan. </span></span></div>

<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I'll work with you to figure out a plan that will help you reach your goals. And I'll collaborate with you to ensure that it's tailored to your current fitness level, past experience, and lifestyle. </span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Rest assured, I believe that it's not enough to just give you a plan and let you take it from there. I'll be available on a regular basis to talk to you about your progress and adjust with your plan when necessary, and be there to provide you with feedback and answers for your questions. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I never would have imagined when I was 30 years old that I'd be racing triathlons competitively when I was in my 50s. But I started running for fitness, completed my first marathon in 1995 (a painful 4:30+ at Marine Corps) and have been going at it ever since. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I started racing triathlons in 2005 and was hooked. And thanks to good coaching and consistent effort I've been able to compete successfully in my age group for some years now. You can see what I've been up to lately at<span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://athlinks.com/racer/results/35200874">http://athlinks.com/racer/results/35200874.</a></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I believe coaching can help all athletes meet their goals, and I want to help others experience the feeling of satisfaction I've had in going beyond what I thought I was capable of. I'm currently a USA Cycling Level 3 coach, and I'm planning on attending a USAT Coaching Certification Clinic in 2013 for my USAT Level 1 coaching license.</span></span><br />

I offer two types of coaching: ongoing coaching and training plans based on specific types of events. Ongoing coaching is structured around monthly payments, while training plans for specific events are a one-time fee. In either case, you'll get detailed training plans delivered on a timely basis, unlimited email consultations, and phone calls or face-to-face meetings when necessary.<br />
<br />
My current monthly rate for ongoing coaching is $75 for run-only coaching, and $100 for triathlon coaching. Clients who sign up for a 3-month commitment to ongoing coaching will receive a 15% discount on their fee. Please contact me for rates and duration of individual event plans. <br />
