For almost four decades, Brian Passenti has been involved in endurance sports. He has participated in triathlons of all distances, from sprints to Ironmans, as well as foot races ranging from one to over 240 miles. He has coached athletes of all ages and abilities, from juniors in track and field to high school cross country and adult fitness classes. In 2018, Brian joined AEC and began working with endurance athletes in ultrarunning, cycling, and mountain objectives. His extensive coaching history brings a wealth of experience to the team.

My approach to coaching involves not only physical training but also mental preparation and emotional support. I work with my athletes to develop a plan that takes into account their strengths, weaknesses, and overall lifestyle. This allows me to create a customized training program that will help them reach their full potential.
Meeting athletes where they are is crucial for their overall success. As a coach, it's important to understand the individual needs and goals of each athlete. This means taking the time to get to know them on a personal level and creating a training plan that is tailored to their specific needs.
