About this episode
In this episode, Simon Olney shares his journey as a professional coach over the past decade, reflecting on his motivations and experiences in the triathlon community.
Having recently passed the milestone of 10 years as a professional coach, I wanted to share my story. How I got started in the sport, what motivated me to coach, how my coaching has evolved, and many other reflections in my 10 years helping people achieve their triathlon dreams. I am joined by my friend Julian Ward who helps facilitate the tiling of my story, someone I worked closely with in the early days as a new coach trying to make an impact on the local club scene. I hope you enjoy the episode as much as I enjoyed recording it.
