There are no get rich quick schemes in triathlon. Only determination and healthy progress over time breeds successful performance. Coach Harold’s foundations and principles are proper physiological assessment, proper lifestyle and goal assessments, intelligent training plans that target specific parameters of each individual athlete, and proper balance of family, work, life, and sport.
