“He is a professional. He knows his stuff and is eager to share all of his Triathlon knowledge and experience”

Coach Simon did an amazing job with my training. I was 59, grumpy, out of shape and miserable. My goal was to complete my first 70.3. I had been somewhat of an athlete as a kid but had no idea how to prepare. I tried a real life coach but I didn’t really want so much attention. After a while this “live” coach got on my nerves. A friend recommended Training Peaks and through TP they have a coaching option and they assigned Simon as my coach. Simon is from the UK and I was training and travelling in Switzerland. It worked beautifully. Workouts were easy to follow, flexible and the workload was just right for my age and schedule. I never met Simon. I don’t even know what he looks like, but I feel like I have known him for years. He is a professional. He knows his stuff and is eager to share all of his Triathlon knowledge and experience. He is also a pretty good cheerleader. During my training I always imagined the little devil Simon on one side of my head and the little Angel Simon on the other. Cheering me on, telling me always never to go too hard yet congratulating me at the same time for my efforts. Asking pertinent questions on my training. Analysing and graphing my workouts, preparing my long term training plan and showing me were I needed to be for my 70.3 race. 8 months ago I couldn’t run 1Km without stopping. Simons plan worked for me. I finished my first 70.3 and my time was very respectable. Thank You Simon.
We will need to do this again soon.
