What started as an adventure to try to run a home town 5k in 1999 has turned into a full blown passion for Troy. Before long, local 5k and 10k races turned into marathons and then triathlons. After being peer pressured into a sprint triathlon by a childhood friend, he immediately became obsessed with this sport, or multisport as it is better known today. Since that time Troy has competed in running races from 5ks to marathons and triathlons from super sprint to Ironman distances.
With much success at the age group level in short distance endurance events, his real passion has been found in long course triathlon and long distance running events. Troy discovered a real gift with writing training plans for friends and family to help them get in shape, lose weight, and has progressed into full service coaching for many. Our full service coaching and consulting includes lifestyle nutrition, pacing strategies, proper technique, training philosophies, body composition, racing nutrition, proper training methods, equipment selection, periodization, RPE zone training, HR zone training, Power training, strength training, and “work/family/fun/life” balance.
Troy is a Christian, husband, father, son, brother, uncle, and finally an endurance coach and athlete. It is because of these roles that he brings a unique perspective to his athletes having walked a mile in those shoes. It is easy to tell someone to train like a professional athlete, but with a full time job and a full time family, he is able to cater to the normal age group athlete so much more than many others understand. Life's everyday activities, stresses, and obligations take its toll on the mind, body, and soul, but you can succeed at any race you have your heart set on with personal coaching from Troy.
