Rockstar Swimmer: Tim Skladzien

Coach’s Notes:

I was psyched to hear from Tim when he reached out to me to train for Alligator Lighthouse swim.

He joined my Swim Essentials virtual training program since he lives in Illinois and we started with the video analysis and swim testing.

From there I gave him specific drills to correct his form along with swim specific strength and stretches as well as his online training program to reach his maximum potential for the 8-mile open water swim race.

Seeing him in our biweekly group coaching calls and checking in on his form monthly allowed him to achieve success despite never having swum in the open ocean for a race like this. He had a personal record in his 5k in Lake Michigan along the way to success in a very wavy open ocean Alligator Lighthouse swim. Super Proud of you Tim. Congratulations – You are a Rockstar Swimmer!

Age:

30

Profession:

Aquatics Manager at Foglia YMCA in Lake Zurich, IL

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?

I heard about FCC when I searched Alligator Lighthouse on Youtube and a video of Coach Erinne talking about her experience swimming popped up and chose to go with FCC to work on my journey of training for the 8-mile ocean swim.

What is your “A” race for this season?

My A race was the Alligator Lighthouse swim.

Please share your BIG goals:

To do another ocean swim in 2024. Maybe stick to a fresh water swim race Summer of 2023? Yet to be determined.

Tell me about your successes so far:

Completing my first ever Alligator Lighthouse swim in 6:37 min. It was tough being from the Midwest where we don’t have access to the ocean like Floridians do. However, I did my best given the fact that the current and waves were tough in getting to the lighthouse.

What were some of your biggest Improvements in performance for the each of the following? Swim, Bike, Run, and Nutrition/Health. Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved:

PR time achieved for 3 mi Lake Michigan swim.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:

1. Support from Family and Friends.
2. Support from my work of allowing me to make this swim happen.
3. My brother doing an amazing job on navigating as my kayaker.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon?

While I am currently not training for any triathlons, the only thing that excites me is competing against other swimmers in the race and training races.

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?

Have fun with training, work hard and do your best!

Coach Erinne’s Notes: Christian Crews has accomplished so much in such a short time. He fits it all in while being a great husband, dad to two kids and entrepreneur. Riding his bike to the pool and back, trading training mornings with his wife and living his new healthy lifestyle. I couldn’t be more proud of his drive and performance.

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey? By pure chance and a great fortune!

What is your “A” race for this season? Miami Man – November Int’l Triathlon.

Please share your BIG goals: Do a Full Ironman® by the time I am 50 yrs old.

Tell me about your successes so far: What were some of your biggest Improvements in performance for the each of the following? Swim: Bike: Run: Nutrition/Health: Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved:

One year ago I smoked, was overweight, and was very stressed with a new start-up. On June 30, 2017, I decided that health and family life was to be my focus going forward, so that day I smoked my last cigarette as my family and I started a long overdue family vacation. After 2 weeks of smoking detox, I felt I needed a “carrot” to keep me from smoking so I signed up for a sprint triathlon (Key West Tri). The idea being that the training would keep me from smoking. So I googled a Tri Training Plan for newbies and joined Erinne’s Swim Masters class in October of 2017, later to realize I needed a team to train with so I joined Full Circle in December. It only took a running evaluation by Coach Erinne in December, to get me running a 5k without stopping/walking and I was hooked on Full Circle and Tri Training.

I consider doing and finishing the Las Olas Sprint Tri a huge success and I now have a benchmark to beat on future sprints planned for the year. Another big success so far, is completing a 5k race this weekend without walking with a PR of 27:10!

Swim – I am swimming faster and longer than ever; Bike – from never riding a road bike (I didn’t know how/why to use bike gears) to a 19.1 mph average in Las Olas Sprint Tri; Run – from the KB Lighthouse Run 5k time of 31:05 (run/walk) to the Patches 5k time of 27:10 (PR) without walking!!!

On the Health/Nutrition side I am still smoke free, did Erinne’s prescribed “Gut Cleanse” in January and have lost 10 lbs since October of last year. In terms of biggest Goal achieved – finishing my first triathlon (Las Olas Sprint) in under 1 hr and 30 min, which I finished in 1 hr 24 min.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:
1. Erinne’s evaluations, especially the swimming and running.
2. The “Gut Cleanse” to start the year.
3. Training with my new family, the Full Circle Team, which supports, pushes and encourages you to get better and faster while still having fun.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon? Being called an “athlete” 🙂

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?
“Just do it,” it will change your life for the better.

2.- Complete my first half ironman – I did this in Augusta in September 2018, I trained for about 7 months to achieve this goal, I completed my first half in 7 hrs.

Coach Erinne’s Notes: Christina was a true beginner when she first joined us. She joined at the lowest level just attending the morning classes and she was focused on only the distance of the race and not concerned with form, technique or speed work and strength. By simply attending classes- NO ONLINE program at all, she has made some amazing improvements. The Full Circle Coaching work hard to make sure each athlete get the attention they need at every training session. Christina’s improvements include no more knee pain due to improved strength and flexibility to getting faster by including intervals and skills training at the group sessions. I am super proud of her and love her ever present smile and sunny disposition. She is one to watch! Congrats on an amazing triathlon season Christina!

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey? Initially, I chose FCC to help me on my triathlon journey because I needed more explicit coaching for running and strength training.

What is your “A” race for this season? I am unsure what my “A” race will be for this coming season but I would like to complete a 70.3. I would like to do the Olympic distance Escape to Miami so I can swim from the island.

Please share your BIG goals: To be able to complete a 70.3 without falling apart. To continue getting stronger and building endurance. To be faster in the swim, bike, and run.

Tell me about your successes so far: I am very happy to say that I recently completed my very first international distance triathlon. It was very challenging for me but I was able to finish it despite the weather. I have also completed several sprint triathlons that have consecutively shown improvement in speed.

What were some of your biggest improvements in performance for the each of the following? Swim: Bike: Run: Nutrition/Health: Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved: Each sprint triathlon I did this year showed improvement in the swim, bike, run, and transition. My swim improved by almost two minutes from the first trilogy to the fourth, and my run by six minutes. I recently PR’d my 5k running time, and completed my first international distance triathlon.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:
1. Being consistent in training

3. Taking part in the Friday strength training class that has made me stronger and eliminated my knee pain.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon? I love being involved in triathlon! There is so much to be excited about! I am not the fastest, but I love being able to challenge myself and see improvement over time. There is nothing like getting to the finish line and knowing that you made it! It is also great to be part of a group of people that share the same passion and are nothing but supportive and encouraging to one another.

Coach Erinne’s Notes:
This lady never ceases to impress me. Her energy is infectious and wow can she dance! Most importantly, her dedication to her beloved sport of triathlon is unmatched. Whether she is with us at the group sessions or on her own she does not miss her training, even in rain and wind. Getting up at 4:30 is part of her routine often, but she makes training a priority. I am so happy she has done the rest, recovery and strength training over the previous 6 months to eliminate her hamstring injuries and race these 2 races back to back with great success. Using the tools that I give her we predicted her last 2 races within 3 minutes of her goal time. That is what good coaching and training is all about, an awesome coach/ athlete communication and relationship. I am so proud of you Lady! Can’t wait to see what you do in 2018! shoot for the moon and you will make it!.

Meet Beda Molina, Full Circle Coaching Rockstar Triathlete

Age: 51 years old

Profession: Business owner

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey? I Chose Full Circle Coaching because I trust Coach Erinne Guthrie’s knowledge, and I love the group of people in the team.

What is your “A” race for this season? I had two “A” races this season, Ironman 70.3 Augusta, and Ironman 70.3 Miami.

Please share your BIG goals: My big goals are to keep lowering my race times, avoid injuries, and prepare for an excellent full distance race next season.

Tell me about your successes so far: My successes so far, are in the results achieved in my three races this season. I was able to win AG in my first race this season, Olympic distance and quite competitive group. Then finishing a sub 6 hrs half distance at Augusta felt really good, and in Miami I was able to place top ten in my division.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:
1. First, the swim keeps getting better, I exit the water with a ton of energy, I will be focusing in the swim in the next few months.

2. I can now put together a strong bike and a strong run within the same race, which is very important, I definitely have improved in both disciplines.

3. I have been able to stay away from any significant injury and have maintained a good health in general this season, so I intend to continue to follow Coach’s guidance in strengthening workouts and nutrition.

The things that have made the biggest difference are: following a training plan and being consistent with my training sessions and nutrition and being able to make a good race plan with accurate and realistic race times, something I learned from coach Erinne, which is an important tool as I have recently found out.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon? What excites me about triathlon is getting to know so many people that are out there doing what I’m doing, the sport is in my opinion growing more each year particularly for us not so young athletes, also getting good results in race day and watching my conditions get better with the training are both exciting.

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program? To those considering joining our training program, I would recommend to join, it is certainly has helped me.

Coach Erinne’s Notes: So Chris is my neighbor who I casually gave some running tips to here and there, which allowed him to break his 4 hour marathon goal! He kind of thought I might know what I was talking about after that. Then he won a free entry into the Ironman Miami 70.3 at our Holiday party and I thought for sure he would give the entry away, but I was pleasantly surprised when he decided to go for it! The rest is history. One year transformation from “runner only” to IM 70.3 Success. His biggest limiter being the swim, he knocked it out of the park on a seriously tough race day. You are truly a RockStar Chris! I know you make me and your family proud. Can’t wait to see what you say yes to next!!!

Meet Chris Kinnaird, Full Circle Coaching Rockstar Triathlete

Age: 44
Profession: Professor at MDC

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey? This all started when I won a raffle for a free Ironman 70.3 registration. What a mistake that was! But that set me on a path of challenges, struggles, accomplishments, and success that I never imagined in my wildest dreams.

What is your “A” race for this season? See above

Please share your BIG goals: See above (Although I now am looking forward to new goals for next season, such as competing in a full Ironman or running my first ultra-marathon)

Tell me about your successes so far: If you had told me a year ago that I would complete 6 triathlons this year, including Ironman Miami 70.3, I would have told you that you were nuts! I raced in my first-ever sprint triathlon in April, and completed a 70.3 less than 6 months later.

What were some of your biggest Improvements in performance for each of the following? Swim: Bike: Run: Nutrition/Health: Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved: A year ago, I couldn’t swim one length of the pool. Now I can say that I swam 1.2 miles in the ocean. Obviously that didn’t happen overnight. The FCC training program kept me focused on my goals.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:
1. Having a support group of like-minded athletes (“crazy people”) who are training alongside you and holding you accountable
2. Working with a coach who frequently checks in on you and knows your personal goals and abilities and pushes you to reach beyond your limits.
3. Establishing a set of short, medium, and long-term goals outlined by your coach to keep you motivated throughout the season

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon? Coming into triathlon as “just a runner” I now have confidence in myself to go after goals that I used to think were impossible.

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program? If you want to see your entire life transformed in a few short months, do it!

Terri is my Dark Horse triathlete. She is very humble and quiet in training but get her on the race course and she lays it all out there. Extremely dedicated to hitting all the workouts with the group or on her own she has definitely shown the most improved in the shortest amount of time! It took months to get her to switch from Duathlon to Triathlon and now she is doing a 70.3! I am so proud of how far she has come in such a short time and look forward to her continued success. COngratualtions Terri you are a true Rockstar Triathlete.

Meet Terri Camejo, Full Circle Coaching Rockstar Triathlete

Age: 49
Profession: Teacher

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey? I chose Full Circle Coaching in January 2017 after the recommendation of friends that are also part of the program. I was looking for a coach that could help me learn how to swim as I began my journey as a newbie Triathlete.

What is your “A” race for this season? I would say my “A” Race would have to be the Huntington’s Disease Triathlon 2017. I signed up for this race under the encouragement of my coach Erinne who told me I was ready to swim an Olympic Distance. Much to my surprise, I entered the lake with only one thought in mind, “I have to get to the other side without panicking.” As I made my way across I knew I was half way home and just had to keep ‘blowing my bubbles’ as coach Erinne had taught me. On my way back, I just had to relax into my stroke and eventually I would make it to shore. Transitioning to the bike went well as I relaxed into my favorite leg. I was happy with my time on the bike as well as on the run landing me with 4 place in my age group. Needless to say I was shocked I was even in the top 5 which just shows what great coaching and dedication can accomplish.

Please share your BIG goals: My big Goal is to complete my first 70.3 Ironman in Augusta this September. This goal was set back in January when my husband decided he wanted to participate in an Ironman. With the help of my coach and fellow teammates, I am looking forward to crossing the finish line and hearing my name.

Tell me about your successes so far: In April this year, I competed in Tri-Miami where I became very anxious as I entered the ocean as others bumped into me during my first triathlon open water swim. I was happy with the results of this Sprint race as I placed 6th in my age group. My second Sprint was 7 weeks later in June 2017. This time I was familiar with the course and was prepared for being bumped and pushed during the swim. I actually felt confident and pushed someone off of me as I rounded the buoy. I was happy with the results of this Sprint as my time was 4 minutes faster than the previous race landing me into 3rd place in my age group. Finally, my third and most challenging race thus far was Huntington’s Disease Olympic Distance this July. Since swimming is not my strength nor what I feel comfortable doing, it was a challenge to set my mind to swim in a lake of all places where I am not as buoyant. This was by far my greatest accomplishment in preparing me for Augusta 70.3.

What were some of your biggest Improvements in performance for the each of the following? Swim: Bike: Run: Nutrition/Health: Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved:

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:

1. Learning the basic skills of swimming from coach Erinne has made the greatest impact in my training. Gone are the days of having to wear fins to make it to the other side of the pool. I have learned appropriate breathing, balance, stroke, and kicking techniques. Although I still don’t enjoying swimming, I can honestly say I wouldn’t have been able to compete in the 3 events I have thus far without her coaching.

2. The bike has always come natural to me and it is what I enjoy the most. However, I wouldn’t be able to have the speed nor endurance without the help from my coach Dennis. He has taught me how to push myself beyond what I could have imagined and because of this type of training he has enabled me to keep up with ‘the fast riders’ on the road. Thanks coach Dennis for gently pushing me to strive to be better and stronger.

3. The run is something I started off doing on my own a couple of months before joining FC in January. Attending track and learning proper running form, strengthen exercises, and stretching has enabled me to learn how to prevent injury and to run. This was accomplished through the encouragement and support of my coaches Erinne, Dennis, and Wilman.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon? I enjoyed the camaraderie of fellow triathletes on the Full Circle team. Everyone is always helpful in sharing techniques in what has worked for them as an athlete. Also, the support and encouragement is wonderful in a sport that can be very independent and self-seeking. As far as the triathlon event, I enjoy hearing the crowd cheering the athletes on as they cross the finish line.

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program? I would encourage them to join the FC training program to develop the appropriate techniques that will improve their individual weaknesses and provide the support needed to fulfill goals as an athlete.

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey? I chose Full Circle because of Coach Erinne’s ability to train and teach me how to push and succeed in the sport of Triathlon. Also the Full Circle family has welcomed me as one of their own.

What is your “A” race for this season? My A race this season is the Escape (Olympic)

Please share your BIG goals: My Big goals are to succeed as each race goes by. And eventually end up as an Ironman.

Tell me about your successes so far: So far I’ve been able to PR on each race.

What were some of your biggest improvements in performance for the each of the following, Swim, Bike, Run, Nutrition/Health, please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved?

In swimming I can make the distances that I shoot out for. When I first started I couldn’t even swim 25 meters in the pool with out stopping. In Cycling I am able to maintain my power while getting to the finish line. When I first started, I couldn’t go over 15mph on average. Now it’s up to 20 mph. I was a runner before joining Full Circle but in no way did I run as good or as fast as I am able to run now.

Coach Erinne has taught me how to run negative splits which in turn helps me become a smarter and faster runner. As far as nutrition and health I can say that I’m eating clean and I feel as if I was 23 not 43. I’ve been able to drop 20 pounds and still feel strong and full of energy.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:
1. A great coach who understands how and when to push me and is straight up about what I’m doing wrong.
2. I train with a group of triathletes who encourage and applaud my successes.
3. Having a family that understands the dedication it takes to become successful in this sport.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon? The challenge it puts me through and seeing that hard work pays off.

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program? I would tell them that this is not an easy journey and that there will be some hard days. It takes a lot of commitment. Nothing about this sport is easy. There are no shortcuts. But with Coach Erinne’s ability to understand each of her athletes and through hard work and dedication, it is all worth it. Without a doubt it’s the best Triathlete group out there.

Meet Miguel Petrizan, Full Circle Coaching Rockstar Triathlete
Age: 56

Profession: Stock Broker and Portfolio Manager Executive

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?  I was simply impressed by FCC professionalism and proven successful records on coaching and training triathletes.

What is your “A” race for this season?  For this season I would like to finish a Half Marathon and 1 or 2 Triathlon Olympic.

Please share your BIG goals: To finish a 70.3 and later a full Iron Man.

Tell me about your successes so far:  I just started 3 months ago with a dream of being healthier and able to finish a long desired Triathlon race. Coach Erinne changed my lifestyle completely, physically and mentally. Her nutrition plan, which I follow by the book, allowed me to be in the best shape ever and incredibly increasing my strength and energy levels.

Her training sessions have incredibly improved my swimming, running and biking techniques, always in an injury-free and safe environment and successfully made me reach the completion of my first triathlon with only 3 months of training and nutritional one-on-one coaching!

I am very proud to belong to the Full Circle team!

What were some of your biggest Improvements in performance for the each of the following?

Swim: It was my less experienced and toughest discipline to learn, and through Erinne’s detailed coaching I have improved tremendously my swimming technique, mostly breathing and speed, making me achieve a pace of 2’/100 yards in short time.
Bike: I am a faster and stronger cyclist than before thanks to FC coaches Erinne and Dennis, who dedicate time and patience in detail with professional techniques. I’ve achieved to be in the group of 20-24 miles and I feel very comfortable riding at such pace.
Run: I consider being able to run my bigger achievement with FC because when I first started I thought I could never run because of an old knee surgery / injury. Coach Erinne was very specific on strengthening first before running long and then using a gradual build in volume I never felt the pain again. It’s amazing that in a short time I could achieve to run continuously up to 5 miles improving my times without any discomfort at all. Incredible!
Nutrition: I re-learned to eat again. FC nutrition coaching changed completely my lifestyle on eating habits. Not only did I lose excess weight but I gained energy and strength as well not feeling hungry ever. Now I pay a lot of attention on what I eat and I am also a savvy grocery shopper.

Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved
Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:

The big change of lifestyle: a healthier life oriented to sport with 3 dynamic and different disciplines: swim, run and bike, which make all fun, for each day is a different adventure.
I feel younger and stronger everyday.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon? The excitement of being a part of an elite population of hard working people, oriented to sport and a healthier life, overcoming all kind of obstacles, such as being handicapped , all ages, any physical condition, etc. It is a tremendous motivation to keep going in the race and in life!

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program? “Just do it!” – Like Nike says.
