I have been an athlete my entire life and I can confidently state that Paul is one of, if not the most, well informed and qualified coaches I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Paul has taken an athlete who was terrified of finishing his first down river swim, Olympic distance, triathlon into someone who has now completed eight triathlons with three of them being Ironman 70.3’s and one full distance Ironman. What separates Paul from other coaches is his ability to clearly and concisely explain specific adaptations to imposed training demands. Paul not only informs me of how these changes are occurring physiologically but why they are in my best interest and how they will make me a better endurance athlete. This level of communication and expertise has not only turned me into a much-improved triathlete, but encourages a significantly high level of buy in where I have the utmost confidence on the start line.
