WALSH - "I bought a new bike and Coach Steve set the aero position
long-distance using digital photos. Then I raced Gulf Coast 1/2 Ironman
and took 10-minutes off last year's bike split! He also coaches me
for swim and run. I emailed my race reports and workout questions
or concerns and he responded that day. I often added a race here or
there and Coach Steve would modify my training schedule to accommodate.
He was willing to discuss any nutritional questions I came up with.
Coach Steve got me to the start line prepared and ready, and I finished
my first Ironman last November in the top 40%. I'm looking forward
to this year's season and anticipate more improvements."

SMITH - "Working with Coach Steve has made me realize what I was
missing in my previous years as a self-coached athlete. After completing
numerous Olympic distance triathlons and almost a dozen marathons,
I was ready to take on the challenge of ironman training. Steve took
the guesswork out of putting together a schedule and kept my long-term
focus clear. He expertly answered all of my questions, and was readily
available by phone and email. He coached me on proper pacing, nutrition,
and technique in all three sports. As a result of his continuous support
and guidance, I made it to my first ironman in South Africa in the
best shape ever, and had a fantastic race experience. Why would I
ever train on my own, if I can tap into all the experience and wisdom
he has to offer? Coach Steve is simply superb."
RYAN HUMES - "Coach Steve has been my coach for the past three
years and in that time I have experienced remarkable gains in my cycling
ability. I came into the sport of triathlon with a swimming background
and virtually no cycling. My swim split was always near the top, not
only in my age group but also overall. My bike split, however, was
always holding me back. That’s where Coach Steve came in. His
technical know-how, training expertise, and racing advice have transformed
my bike split from a decent, middle-of-the-age-group time into a consistently
top overall split. I used to simply hope I’d have a good bike
split; now I rely on it. Coach Steve is the reason for my improvement
thus far. And with him, I know my improvements will continue." Ryan's

DANNELS - "I needed some new perspective for my training. I hired
Steve as my coach in January with some hesitation because of the geographic
distance between us. It's worked well though, as every email and phone
call was answered. Right before I boarded the plane flying to my biggest
race fo the season I was gripped with fear and doubt. I called Steve
and he was the 'voice of reason' I needed. He has incredible coaching
qualities: he's consistent, level-headed, motivating, experienced,
understanding, smart and disagreeing at times (which is good for me).
He helped me gain confidence and stay injury free. He is also a 'bad-ass.'
Google him! I have complete trust in him to get me ready for my next
adventure." |
