TriAptitude Coaching

It’s my pleasure to provide this recommendation for Courtney Culligan as a triathlon coach.  I’ve worked with Courtney for over a year and she has been my coach for the past 7 months. She helped me improve my athletic performance and exceed my goals for Sprint, Olympic and Ironman 70.3 races.

Courtney is knowledgable in all phases of triathlon preparation, but what stands out most to me is her dedication to her athletes.  Her availability, responsiveness, communication and continuous improvement to the training plan exceeded my expectations.  As an older athlete (47), Courtney’s knowledge about injury prevention and recovery was particularly key to my success. She had me spend more time recovering from injuries than I was comfortable with and I raced better because of her guidance.

I achieved Ironman 70.3 All World Athlete (Silver) status without coaching, so initially I wondered if coaching would make much difference.  Courtney’s program and coaching helped me shatter my prior 70.3 record by over 27 minutes to achieve a 5:07:31 at Ironman 70.3 Costa Rica, which included PR’s for all three sports.

Again, its my pleasure to recommend Courtney Culligan as a triathlon coach. She cares about the people she trains and she has the knowledge and desire to make her athletes better.
