Chad/TotalCyclist,
I wanted to write to express my gratitude for being such an amazing coach! When I first signed up with you, you told me you would not just make me faster, but that you’d also be a life-coach. At that that time I really wasn’t interested in a life coach, I just wanted to be faster! Despite that you gave me both and looking back I realize I couldn’t have one without the other! After all, while I want to be as competitive as possible, I’m not just an athlete, but also have a demanding job in corporate America, am a newly-wed and I’m in grad school. You were able to incorporate all parts of my life into effective training and within a few months I’ve increased my threshold (i.e. speed), have gone from a Cat 3 to a Cat 2 racer and have done my first NRC races!
You have the knack for both the SCIENCE and ART of training an athlete. Your work with power is extremely detail oriented, but yet you don’t rely on just the numbers, you also incorporate what’s going on in my life at that moment (work, relationship, training) and balance each of them out. While I know you work with many successful athletes, your individual attention makes me feel like you’re working exclusively with me. I cannot say enough about how impressed I am with your coaching and I look forward to many more successful seasons together!
Thanks for all you do!
