Stop Guessing. Start Training With Purpose.
Personalized triathlon coaching built around your fitness, schedule, recovery, strengths, weaknesses, and race goals. Get structure, feedback, accountability, and a coach actively involved in your progress.
I work with a limited number of 1-on-1 athletes. Submit a short application and I’ll personally review your goals, background, and what you’re looking for.
A Coach Fully Involved in Your Training
Private coaching is for athletes who want more than a downloadable training plan.
I build your training around your current fitness, training history, work schedule, family commitments, recovery, injury history, strengths, weaknesses, and race goals.
As your body and life change, your training changes with it. I review what you’re actually doing, how you’re responding, and make adjustments throughout the process.

A Plan That Changes as You Change
Good coaching isn’t a static training plan. It evolves with your fitness, life, recovery, and race goals.
Understand the Athlete
We start with your goals, training history, current fitness, schedule, strengths, weaknesses, injuries, and previous results.
Train With Purpose
Your workouts are built around what you need to improve, rather than following a generic training template.
Analyze and Adjust
I review your training and feedback so we can make changes based on how you’re actually responding.
Your Workouts Tell a Story
I use completed workouts, training consistency, pace, power, heart rate, recovery, and your feedback to understand how your body is responding and what should happen next.
- Review pace, power, heart rate, and workout execution
- Track training consistency, fatigue, and recovery
- Use real training data to guide future decisions
Coaching Built Around the Athlete
Your goals, schedule, background, and life are different from everyone else’s. Your training should reflect that.
What Athletes Say
“I’m in the best spot I’ve ever been with endurance sports, and for the first time I genuinely believe the big goals ahead are achievable. If you’re looking for someone who blends data, experience, and true coaching instincts, Simon is that guy.”
“After my knee replacement, my FTP improved from 193 to 250. I finished second in my age group at Oregon 70.3 and qualified for the 2027 World Championship. Every workout has a purpose, and the communication has been a huge part of my success.”
“Simon’s coaching improved not only my swim times but my confidence in the water. I’ll have him as a coach again in the future.”
