Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey? I started attending swim training on Wednesday mornings with FC in Miami, to prepare for an OWS race. I saw improvement pretty quickly. After a few months, Erinne asked me if I was interested in hearing about their Tri program. After speaking with her and hearing the different options, the weekday group training schedule worked for me and it had everything I needed. So I decided to give it a try.
What is your “A” race for this season? Escape to Miami (Olympic distance)
Please share your BIG goals: I would love to do a half ironman this year or next.
Tell me about your successes so far: I’ve seen improvements in my endurance journey with FC: A 29 minute PR between my first triathlon in 2014 and my fourth triathlon last year (same race) and an 11 minute PR in my half marathon time.
Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey: Paying more attention to my nutrition (which Erinne stresses constantly), and strength training with FC have had a huge impact on my progress.
What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon? Seeing what I can do, testing my limits and overcoming fears!
What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program? Check it out! It’s a fun team with really nice people. Erinne is a great coach, along with the other knowledgable FC Coaches Christina, Dennis, David, and Wilman.
