I'm an engineer, triathlete, and beer nerd. I'm a life-long swimmer and my first experience in triathlon was as a swimmer in a relay in 2006. I didn't own a bike and joked that I would only run if I was being chased by something. I did my first sprint triathlon (on a borrowed bike) in 2008 and was hooked. Since then I've done many 70.3s, 3 IMs, and am now branching out into the world of Xterra (and has the scars to show for it).

I also work with several organizations to promote women's cycling, with the goal of encouraging beginners to get out and ride and and gain the confidence to race. Erin’s personal clients strive to achieve personal bests in half marathons and marathons as well as triathlons of all distances – from sprint to Ironman. Specializing in beginner and intermediate athletes, her goal is to help people realize their fitness dreams through endurance sports – completing a marathon, completing a triathlon, or just adopting a healthier lifestyle. She also enjoys helping seasoned athletes achieve personal bests or complete longer distances.

When I'm not out swimbikerunning, you'll find me on the ski slopes or drinking beers. In essence, I don't take myself too seriously. But what I DO take seriously is trying to be my best at whatever I do - coaching, training, and racing. As a personal coach, Erin’s philosophy is that running and triathlon are exciting ways to achieve goals, build self-confidence, stay active and fit, have fun and meet great people. Whether her clients are first-timers or athletes striving for personal bests, Erin can provide the framework for success.

I coach to road tris, swim, bike run, and Xterras. I specialize in making sure that the process is enjoyable and that the training fits in with your already busy and complicated life. Awards and Honors:

I came to endurance and fitness first by way of swim team at the age of 8 and later, competing in middle and high school in track, cross country, and swimming. I later went on to coach the same recreational team that I had been on as a child for 8 years.

Meanwhile, in my personal life, I have had many health challenges, including a tragic 30-foot fall that impacted the use of my right leg, cancer, and an auto-immune disease diagnosis. I overcame these setbacks to compete on a national and world level in triathlons.

I bring my experience as an athlete and someone who has been challenged with setbacks and limitations to my work with clients of all abilities.

My education includes a BS in Biological Sciences. I hold certifications with USAT-Level 1, NASM-PES, Precision Nutrition-Level 1, TrainingPeaks-Level 1, ISSA-CPT, ISSA-NC. I have been coaching endurance for 25 years with nearly 8 years focused on triathlon. I have coached athletes at the grass-roots level clear up to international level competition at both short course and long course world championships. As an athlete, I have competed at the national level three times and competed at ITU Worlds in 2019 in Lausanne, Switzerland as part of Team USA.

Other things I enjoy are my two dogs, my two horses, and Baseball. Actually, almost anything in sport is fun. I just particularly like Baseball for my son’s sake. This year my 18 year old son will be heading off for his first year in college at CU in Boulder.

2001 graduate of Equine Science from Colorado State University. I have worked in the horse industry for 25 years. I'm currently a riding instructor and horse trainer for Kenlyn Stables in Aurora, CO. I began my journey into triathlon in 2011 and plan to race my first full distance Ironman race this year. In 2019 I earned my personal training certification through The American Council on Exercise. My passion is in helping others achieve their goals and find that confidence that comes for accomplishing what once seemed impossible.
