About Brenda

I'm passionate about the sport of triathlon. My first sprint triathlon was in August of 2000 and my first Ironman in 2004. I've completed 12 Ironman triathlons, including five Ironman World Championship races in Kona. I have completed over 30 half ironman races, including a few championships, and many Olympic and Sprint distance races.
I have been coaching triathletes from sprint to half ironman distance races, on and off since 2009. I offer individualized coaching with plans updated either every week or every two weeks. I am a fan of utilizing periodic performance testing to guide the plan.

Coaching Philosophy

I like to do periodic testing as a feedback mechanism on progression and a tool to base daily workouts around. I expect feedback and check-ins to be a part of the training process.
