Hello, I’m Mark Capek, a triathlete and coach with 20 years of experience. My career started with local Olympic events and led me to Ironman races worldwide, including the Ironman Hawaii 2022. Simultaneously, I began coaching rowers and Masters triathletes. I specialize in balancing training, work, and family. As a co-owner of a bike shop, I’ve built a strong industry network that benefits my athletes.
I am a certified coach in Austria, originally specializing in rowing. Over the years, my job has expanded from being a swimming coach to include cycling, running, and ultrarunning. Additional certifications and training in strength training are a regular part of rowing. My athletes have achieved success from the Junior World Championship level to top placements in their age groups globally, across multiple sports.I developed a special running course for beginners. However, my main focus has always been on a holistic training approach, aiming to achieve maximum results with minimal effort.
Through my interest and studies in mathematics and physics as part of an incomplete teaching degree, I have spent years working with load management models and developed an approach to plan recovery. I've been familiar with TrainingPeaks and the Performance Management System (PMS) with TSS since their early days on local PCs. My technical affinity also led me to become a bike fitter, and I practice bike fitting and technique optimization in our store. Additionally, we offer lactate testing and can thoroughly discuss training plans at X-Sport Worldstore.
