At Breakaway Multisport we understand the many expectations of our clients and strive to meet and surpass these expectations as we guide them along the path to realizing their athletic dreams. Our mission is to provide much more than merely a training schedule and the occasional "rah-rah" email. Mentor, motivator, taskmaster, time manager, trainer, planner, teacher, and equipment consultant are a few of the many hats we wear as a triathlon coaches. With our athletes we try to use our combined knowledge and experience to build a training program that will not only help them reach the realistic goals that we set, but also do so without putting undue strain on their careers and family lives. We feel that it is most important that we keep priorities straight and our athletes must recognize that, even though we strive for excellence, their sporting endeavors should enhance, not overshadow, the other aspects of their lives. Our training calendars often include spouse's and children's birthdays, anniversaries, and job oriented events. Planning around such things avoids personal conflict and stress, helping to maintain balance in life. Keeping life in balance is very often the biggest challenge in coaching athletes, as they are so eager to reach that next level that they sometimes can lose the big picture. Our job is to push our athletes to the limits required to reach their physical potential, insure that they take the necessary recovery time to perform at their best, keep them healthy and injury free, and still know when to make them hold back and live their lives. We want to see our athletes hit the finish line with a personal best, a big smile, with their friends and family cheering them on. |
