About the coach:
My name is Charlie Coenen, a Doctor of Physical Therapy, former runner/triathlete, performance coach who focuses on bridging the gap between injury and performance, and building sustainability in endurance sports. After competing at a high level in soccer, marathon, ultra marathon, and triathlon, my competition ended after being diagnosed with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy. My mission is to ensure that an injury or a diagnosis is not the end of an athlete's career, but the start of a more resilient and informed chapter where they come back better than before. I pride myself in blending my education, personal experience, and simple approaches to training that promote improved performance and long-term health for athletes. I have a wide array of experience helping novices, race winners, aging athletes, injured athletes, and those who are looking for performance gains.
