"Thank you Ingrid. In a very short time you have had a profound impact on my ability to manage open
water." Erik
"Ingrid provided me great swim instruction and ultimately helped me develop the confidence that I needed
to have fun competing in triathlon. Ingrid's latest personalized training plan has given my training much
needed focus, direction and variety while remaining flexible enough for my busy lifestyle." -Mike
"Ingrid,
Thank you so much for all your help in training me for my first 1/2 ironman. In the past I had run 1/2
marathons, 10k's and sprint triathlons. I stayed away from the longer tri races because the swim was
something that I just endured, struggled through and survived. I would get out of the water with arms like
noodles totally worn out from muscling my way through. Your help with swim technique has completely
changed the way I swim. I was totally comfortable and had a great river swim at Barb's race. Not only did I
have a good swim time, 4 minutes faster then the goal time I had set for myself, but also came out feeling
strong and ready to bike. I could not have done this without your coaching. The videos you took of me
underwater and the videos you sent of others with proper swim form were a great tool for really
understanding what I needed to correct.
The training plan you provided for me to train all three aspects running, biking and swimming got me right
where I needed to be on race day. It was a great tool, I knew exactly what I would be doing each week and
could move workouts around within the week to fit my time constraints. I can't thank you enough, not only
for your coaching but also your encouragement and the way you took such a personal interest in making
sure I was prepared to be successful on race day.
Thanks again,
Shawna"
"I am very glad I hired Ingrid as my triathlon coach. I only had 8 weeks before my first half ironman so I
wasn't sure what to expect. It was an intense program of training along with a strong focus on weight loss. I
felt more prepared as the final week approached than I expected. She taught me more than just the
training, including planning, fueling and preparing mentally. I asked her to prepare a marathon training
program for me and next she will prepare my ironman training program.
A key part of my training focused on weight loss. Ingrid asked that I get a baseline and follow-up body
composition (7 site skinfold) to measure the results over a 3 month period. I was shocked at the success
over such a short time frame: 18 lb overall weight loss, 2% reduction of body fat, 8 lb fat weight loss, 4.5
inch loss around waist and 3 point drop in my BMI.
Thank you Ingrid for all I've learned thus far, Here's to my future success.-Julie
