Events & Podcast Appearances
I became a triathlon coach so I could spend all day talking about triathlon. Kidding, not kidding. I also nearly bought a shirt at a race expo that said "Introvert, but willing to talk about triathlon." Definitely not kidding. So I always jump at the chance to have a conversation about my favorite topic — in person, over Zoom, or any way you'll have me.

Get ready for race day at the August 16th Coeur Sports Outdoor Divas Triathlon by Without Limits — or any triathlon. Coach Alison will walk you through every detail of race weekend — from what to eat and what to pack the day before to the swim start and all the way through to the finish line.

Work With Me
Interested in having me on your podcast, at your event, or leading a clinic? I love talking about triathlon training, especially with beginners — about the first day of training to the moment you cross the finish line and everything in between.
