BALANCE 
   • Create a sense of harmony amongst family, career, and 
      competitive endeavors. 
   • Maintain energy for other life pursuits. 
   • Use triathlon to enhance lifestyle, not overwhelm it. 

   As a husband, father of a toddler, coach, therapist, and 
   athlete, I understand the importance of maintaining a 
   balance in life and will respect your priorities.

TRAINING AND COACHING PHILOSOPHY
   • Enhance health while building the aerobic and 
      musculoskeletal system. 
   • Emphasize key workouts specific to the requirements of 
      goal races. 
   • Ensure full recovery of body and mind between key 
      workouts so that training quality, motivation, and race- 
      specific fitness can be achieved. 
   • Deliver schedules in one week blocks to maintain flexibility 
      based on the athletes unique needs and abilities. 
   • Encourage athletes to learn and understand the principles 
      of proper endurance training and to develop their intuition 
      so that they can take an active roll in their athletic 
      progression. 
   • Support energy levels and recovery through proper nutrition
      and hydration. 

   I prefer a highly interactive approach to coaching, and hope
   that you will enjoy the improvements in health and 
   performance, the fun of traveling to great places to train 
   and race, and the wonderful friendships that you will make
   through this sport.
