I am a master's triathlete with over 25 years of experience in the sport and 14 Ironman Hawaii podium finishes, including 2 World Championship age group titles and dozens of 1st place 70.3 age group podiums.  With my background as a veterinary surgeon, criticalist and PhD physiologist, I have always had a strong interest in the physiology of sport and the prevention of injury.  I am both an Ironman University and TriDot certified coach and work through both the TriDot platform and/or via Training Peaks with custom plans. My specialty is improving performance on the bike (I am a cat 2 cyclist) to set my athletes up for a strong run and I am well-versed in riding and running with power as well as heart rate based training. As a post-menopausal woman, I also have extensive experience with all of the fun things that accompany aging and love to guide fellow masters athletes through conquering these age-related challenges.  For local athletes, I utilize EO swim better technology and both over the water and underwater video footage to optimize swim efficiency along with having advanced training with the TriDot Pool School program. I have also completed intensive training in Functional Nutrition by MindBodyGreen and am training in masters female athlete nutrition with “Feisty Women’s Performance”! I am a lifelong learner and scientist so I continue to keep up to date with all aspects of sports performance and healthspan optimization. My passion is making people healthier one athlete at a time, from the first time runner or triathlete to the highly experienced athlete looking to reach that next level in sport.
