Swim/Bike/Run your way to serenity with Placid Athlete!

What is a Placid Athlete?

A Placid Athlete is someone who is fit in both mind and body, living a tranquil, balanced lifestyle.

Wouldn’t you like to be fit enough to accomplish whatever physical feat you set your mind to, whether that may be running a 5k race, riding your bike in a local charity ride, or maybe even becoming an Ironman triathlete?

Wouldn’t you like to replace any unhealthy eating habits with proper nutrition so you will look better, feel better, and do everything in your power to avoid chronic diseases of the West such as cardiovascular disease and cancer?

Wouldn’t you like to live a life where you savor the present moment, are happy, and able to cope easily with the stresses of daily life?

This is the Life of a Placid Athlete!

There are three pillars to becoming a Placid Athlete:

Our Key Values:

  • Being a Placid Athlete is not just about training for an event 2 or 3 months away and then that’s it, you are finished. Instead, being a Placid Athlete is a way of life. We want you to make proper fitness and nutrition something you do every day so that you build healthy habits for a lifetime.  
  • Communication is key. We will work together to set goals, develop a plan that works with your busy lifestyle, and then we will be in constant communication concerning execution of the plan. If something isn’t working, we will work together to find a solution.

  • We want you to succeed in reaching your personal goals, and will provide a supportive environment and constant encouragement to make that possible. Constructive criticism (coaching!) will focus on helping you strengthen your weaknesses and become a better athlete.
