Listen "One Woman's Journey to Racing Iron Man"
Episode Synopsis
Hi and welcome to this Realife podcast - a space to share stories of real people and the real things that define them. As many of you know, I love to run and I love to challenge myself in new arenas. There are so many athletes that inspire me - many who are dear friends. And today, I want to introduce you a very inspirational woman and dear friend of mine, Courtney Monroe Culligan.Courtney is a USAT Level 1 Certified Coach and a triathlon race team member with Team Infinit Competition and The Cupcake Cartel. She started TriAptitude Coaching, five years ago, to provide triathlon coaching as well as strength and conditioning, sport specific endurance training and personal training both locally in the Denver area as well as nationally. In this episode, Courtney shares her journey of coaching and competing in races. She's incredible and her philosophy towards life I hope will impact you the way it has me. Coaching PhilosophyMy coaching philosophy is based on my personal experience as an athlete, mother, wife and teacher. My highest priority is to make sure every one of my athletes realize their fullest potential and to support them in this journey. I focus on a balance of life. And, I believe that direct, efficient communication and mutual respect is the key to a strong athlete/coach relationship. My ongoing experience with teaching, coaching and racing gives me an empathetic understanding of my athlete’s individual needs and concerns as they prepare for their race season. I encourage my athletes to find the right balance for themselves which encourages continued consistency in training and commitment to their personal goals, both in sport and in life as a whole.Thanks for listening today!
