After three prior triathlon seasons, Amanda became my coach. She added structure to my training and was able to take my goals and use my strengths and weaknesses within the three sports to accelerate my improvement. Her knowledge base in training regimens, nutrition, and recovery helped maximize the benefits of my workouts. She was also immensely flexible, changing my schedule around personal events and new races I wanted to add to my schedule. She made herself available to questions and feedback regularly and always looked for new ways to push my limits. After just one season with Amanda, I have qualified for the Ironman 70.3 World Championships in Clearwater, FL and completed my first Ironman in Lake Placid. Neither of these accomplishments would have been possible without her guidance and support.

Amanda’s coaching expertise has helped me make significant strides in improving my triathlon racing ability. I have been competing in triathlons for several years but struggled to create a training plan on my own that increased my speed and kept me focused. Before week 1, Amanda and I discussed my strengths (swimming and running background) and weaknesses (bad knees that have always limited my running base, and cycling) and my personal goals for my racing season. She then designed my training plan with all that in mind, and has kept me focused with a constant diversity of workouts to tune various aspects of my race performance. She has been extremely responsive to my individual needs, modifying my training plan whenever necessary to accommodate my schedule, give me more rest, or increase the intensity of my workouts based on my feedback. Plus I dropped nearly 20 mins in a half ironman from a year ago!

Once I found out I had to run for my military PT test and had not run for years I contacted [Amanda] my old neighbor. She put me on a plan that in a few short program changes had me running again and passing. If I had not rolled my ankle when I drifted off the track it would have been my best run time yet. Thanks again!
