Monthly Coaching

My monthly coaching is built around one simple idea: your training should fit your life, not the other way around. Every athlete comes to this sport with a different schedule, background, and set of goals — so I create each plan from scratch, tailored specifically to what you need right now. No templates, no auto-generated workouts, just thoughtful, individualized coaching.

​

I personally review and adjust your plan throughout the month to make sure it stays realistic, flexible, and effective. You’ll get regular check-ins, ongoing feedback, and unlimited email communication, so you’re never left wondering what to do or whether you’re on track. Whether you’re training for your first sprint triathlon or pushing toward a new PR, you’ll always have guidance, support, and a coach who’s genuinely in your corner.

 

In-Person Swim Coaching

Swim coaching consists of a 45 minute pool session with coach Cherilyn Suiter. The coaching you will receive will allow you to learn about what it will take to improve your individual stroke on your own, without having to take weekly lessons. At least one follow-up session is recommended within 1-2 months, but certainly not required. You will learn drills specific to your stroke needs and be able to incorporate them into your training. Swim sessions will usually take place at a local pool between Mountlake Terrace and Arlington. Other arrangements can be made for a different location (additional fee may apply for travel). If you are a member of 24-hour Fitness you can choose to have the lesson at those locations as well. The cost is $85 plus tax and pool fees. Swim sessions are discounted if you are a coaching client on a 4-week training program.

Online Swim Analysis and Coaching

This is approximately 45 minutes of an online session after analysis of video to review the video and show demonstrations of stroke improvement.

 

Triathlon 101/102 Package

This was created for those people who wanted to make it to our in-person Triathlon 101 and 102 classes and were not able to. With this package, you receive all of the handouts for the classes (triathlon from A to Z) and unlimited e-mail access for coaching questions for one month. You also receive a 45-minute swim coaching session.
