Pragmatic coaching for busy people

I don't expect you to train for 25 hours a week, won't scold you for missing workouts or insist you to swim five days back to back. I build training plans for real people with stressful jobs, busy family lives and big dreams. 

 

SPEND LESS TIME ON ADMIN, MORE TIME DOING THE THINGS YOU LOVE

Don't let triathlon become a second job. Instead of spending hours trawling YouTube for answers to your questions or making costly mistakes, let me do the legwork. I have spent thousands of hours researching the sport so you don't have to. Let me write your training plan, provide daily feedback and answer all your triathlon questions. 

After all, time you save on triathlon admin is more time you can spend training or with your loved ones.

COACHING IS TRIATHLON INSURANCE 

You have a big goal. You're investing hundreds of hours of your precious time as well as thousands spent on entry fees bikes, flights, technology, nutrition, pool fees, wetsuits and clothing to name just a few.

While I can never promise that we will achieve your goals together, the odds of you finishing will skyrocket when we work together. 

My coaching may cost a first time Ironman athlete less than 10% of their budget. Surely that's a worthwhile investment to almost guarantee a finish?

Meet your coach

SIMON OLNEY

I have been in the sport of triathlon since 2012, and working as a coach since 2016. As a British Triathlon High Performing coach, certified nutrition coach and strength coach, I am well placed to help you with more than just writing a training plan

Before working in triathlon I was a lighting designer in the film industry, juggling the long hours and high pressure with my training. Unlike most other coaches, I know what it's like to train while holding down a job outside the world of sport. 

I have completed all distances of triathlon with a handful of wins to my name. When not training or coaching I can be found volunteering with the local scout group or walking my retired greyhound.

A fully bespoke training plan

 

A training plan is the cornerstone of a coaching programme. We never deliver copy and paste plans, with each plan written on a week by week basis, delivered via TrainingPeaks and sent straight to your training device.

Missed most of last week due to a big work deadline? Looking after an unwell family member? Jetting off on a last minute business trip? All of these are taken into consideration every week, with edits made midweek where necessary.

We are also more than happy to build a plan around group training sessions. Big fan of the local Thursday night group ride? parkrun addict? Attend a Sunday morning swim squad? These can all be incorporated into your plan.

Your training plan should be as individual as you are, helping you improve without being constantly exhausted or playing catch-up.

UNLIMITED COACH CONTACT

Whether your bike has started making a strange noise, you need help choosing which wetsuit to buy, you're considering purchasing some super shoes or you just need someone to chat through your anxieties with, I'm here to help. 

With my coaching programme you can message me as much as you like, and organise as many calls as you'd like (within reason!).

Instead of spending hours trawling through misinformation and bro science on the internet, you can message me for an answer to your questions within minutes. While I can't promise to be able to answer every single question off the cuff, if I don't know the answer to a question, I will endeavour to find it for you. 

 

DIAL IN YOUR NUTRITION

 

Nutrition is a confusing and overwhelming subject. Whether you are trying to work out what is the best thing to eat before a long ride, calculating how many grams of sodium you need on race day, or what your daily protein target should be, it can leave your head in a spin.

As a certified nutrition coach I can help you navigate the confusing world of nutrition to ensure you're properly fuelling your workouts, recovering well and maintaining a healthy relationship with food.

 

REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY

The biggest reason endurance athletes fail to achieve their goals is injury. Someone starts training getting faster, running longer and seeing improvements until an injury derails all their progress. 

By combining a gradual, sustainable increase in volume with a strength programme built around you, we can massively reduce the chance of injury. 

It would be foolhardy of me to promise that you won't get injured training with me, but I'll do everything I can to minimise the risk. If the worst does happen, we can provide you discounted rates with our physiotherapy partners to get you back training as soon as possible.

 

FREE LIFETIME ACCESS TO OUR EDUCATION PLATFORM (RRP £1000) 

Triathlon is the most confusing sport on the planet bar none. Not only do you have to learn everything there is to know about swimming, cycling and running, you also have to learn about strength and nutrition, not to mention the logistical nightmare that is racing. The journey from wannabe triathlete to Ironman finisher is an incredibly steep learning curve.  Learning how to ride on the road, teaching yourself to swim freestyle in open water and understanding the principles of nutrition are all essential to success.

Rather than spend hours trawling YouTube ads and unnecessarily long videos for answers, or getting advice from influencers paid to push a certain product, my education hub is a source of information from a trusted, impartial source. While it is (and will always be) a work in progress as there is so much to cover, it will give you a huge headstart on your competition. 

PRICING

Anyone with a big goal in triathlon will work with a coach, nutritionist and strength trainer to ensure they're optimising every aspect of their performance, with some spending in excess of £1000 a month.

When you work with me, you get all three of these for £250 a month.

I'm not going to suggest this is pocket change, but let's compare it to other triathlon expenses:

Annual membership to a health club: £2400
Cervelo P3X triathlon bike: £8799
Zipp Super-9 disc wheel: £2450
Zone 3 Vanquish-X wetsuit: £699
IRONMAN entry fee: £649
Return plane ticket to Kona for a single adult- £1400

Where a fancy wetsuit and disc wheel might shave a few minutes off of your race time, and a triathlon bike might be worth 15 minutes over an Ironman, my coaching has routinely helped people shave hours off of their Ironman time.

So, what do you think? Places are limited and race day is getting closer.
