Testimonials

Jen M. (Triathlete/Runner)

David is an exceptional coach and tailored my run plan specific to my busy schedule and kept me injury-free. While working with David I ran my fastest-ever 10-mile race (at age 51, proving that age doesn’t have to slow you down if you train right!), and hit my target goal at Grandma’s Marathon, landing in the top 5% of my age group. His knowledge, professionalism, and kindness make him a terrific coach, while offering the perfect recipe for triathlon or running success.

David is educated and methodical with his approach to coaching and training. Since working with David, my fitness is continually reaching new heights, but best of all, his guidance prevents me from injuring myself when I train too hard or too often. He has helped me to qualify for Ironman and IM70.3 World Championships and I will continue to partner with him for running and triathlon coaching.

Coaching has been the best investment I’ve made in my triathlon journey.  With a growing family and busy career, time is my biggest limitation. David provides me with a plan each week that builds to my specific goals and schedule constraints.  And when life happens, David is able to adjust to make sure I get the most out of each training week and stay on track to my long term goals.  I used to feel stressed about what training I should do, often leading to overtraining and injury.  I can now focus on each workout, knowing David’s experience will guide me to my next race.  And when I have questions, David is always available for training, race, and nutrition advice.  Although my initial goal with coaching was simply for better time management and life balance, I’ve been blown away with the fitness gains and results in just one year.  In 1 year, I’ve taken almost 40 minutes off my Ironman PR and 36 minutes off my 70.3 PR, and improved my time in each sport.  Looking forward to another successful year of racing with David as my coach!

David’s knowledge, experience and passion for triathlon make him an excellent coach. He was able to balance my intense work travel schedule and still help me get in the meaningful workouts when time was limited. His customized approach, thorough communication, and consistent encouragement had me confident and excited on race day – IM Ohio 70.3 – when I completed my first half Ironman.

Annie S. (Triathlete/Runner)

With David’s coaching, I trained and completed my first 70.3 as well as a half marathon PR. David’s customized training plan kept me from injury, overtraining and made me very prepared for my first race. I was more prepared (both fitness level and mentally) for the 70.3 than I could’ve ever imagined, thanks to David.  David was extremely responsive and very realistic when it comes to busy schedules and life impacting training. David’s coaching is a must have for all my future races.
