What I want from a coach:
- Someone who knows what he's doing
- Someone who knows how to motivate
- Someone who has a good rapport among other athletes
- Someone with whom I get along
- Someone who does what he tells me to do
- Someone who knows how to help me improve
- Someone who has the drive to succeed
- Someone who serves Christ
- Someone who is in the shape I want to be in
Goals:
- Olympic triathlete: 2016
- - Olympic distance
- - Draft legal
- - Check times from 2008
- Ironman Kona qualifier: ASAP
- - Iron distance
- - Check times: between 10h and 11:30
My strengths as an athlete:
- sprinter
- can maintain same pace
- self-motivated
- desire to succeed
- drive to win
My weaknesses as an athlete:
- Not fast at endurance distance
- Not fast-paced in general
- Probably heavier (and with a different body type) than most other athletes
- (All the above CAN be overcome!)
My needs--how I should be improving:
- Increase speed on run
- Climb hills better on bike (don't get dropped)
- Swim faster (if I'm not out of the water with the lead group, I won't ever catch up, especially in draft-legal races)
