Coaching Philosophy
- Supporting the athlete to achieve their goals. It’s important to me that any program I provide belongs to the athlete and is in service of them and their ambitions, not mine.
- Enjoyment of the process. I aim to provide planning and support that has clear performance focus but also balance and enjoyment.
- Athlete – Coach Connection. It’s really important to me that there is a good connection between the athlete and coach, it’s not and can’t be a transaction.I want to work with people I have an affinity with and where both sides enjoy the process.
- Applying Basic Principles of Athletic Development. Through experience and study I have developed my principles of how to develop endurance athletes. Good coaching is the ability to apply these principles to the real life circumstances of the individual.
