It’s marathon season in NY. In three weeks, marathoners across the world will toe the line in Staten Island to race the NYC marathon. Inspired to try a marathon yourself by watching others prepare? Spring marathons are a great option but the challenge is often training into the colder months when the park becomes more lonely. Seeking a group to keep you motivated as the weather gets cold?
Startline Coaching offers a group training program for beginning & intermediate marathoners. Group training kickoff is Nov 9, 2022. The race target is the popular NYCRUNS Brooklyn Marathon on April 23, 2023. Athletes can choose any alternative race that is within a few weeks of this target date.

In the Northeast, bringing athletes inside to work together as a group in Zwift and simultaneously on Zoom has been a game changer.
Athletes get so much more out of every workout because they can interact, ride as a group, and execute a workout that is specific to them – all while being coached and able to raise questions as they occur.
Unlike group rides where strong riders tend to pull away from weaker riders, Zwift meetups with group together mode hold the entire group together even if the group possesses vastly different abilities. Each person works at their level of capability without fear of being dropped. Athletes in a virtual group can even be executing different workouts. All impossible in the outdoors!
Startline Coaching offers fall & winter cycling programs over Zwift. Be professionally coached this winter and come out next year ready to ride.

The shortening days and dropping temperatures of fall and winter (did we mention rain and snow?) can make working out on our own a challenge. More importantly, we often do not know how to structure our off-season for the best results – what to do, for how long, in what order, and when. But the off-season offers an opportunity that comes but once-a-year to hone skills, increase strength and stamina, and set a strong foundation for the spring and summer.
Startline Coaching is once again offering two popular 10-week off-season run and bike programs, with the option to extend beyond 10-weeks.
Both programs offer structured workouts via Training Peaks, along with regular testing to set benchmarks for each athlete’s zones and efforts. Coached, weekly group training sessions (in Prospect Park for runners and on Zwift for cyclists) build camaraderie, accountability, and learning. Winter and/or spring races are included for goal-setting and testing our mettle.
All levels are welcome: the beginner who’s gotten a taste of racing and wants to improve, the experienced athlete who wants to get back in shape after time away, the competitive age-grouper who wants to set their sights on new goals and challenges – and everyone in between. Each athlete is equally valued by the group. We cheer one another on, offer support when the going gets tough and the spirit lags, and celebrate successes and breakthroughs.

Swim your best swim in 2022

I love swim camp. Every year, 20 swimmers and triathletes join Startline Coaching for a 3-day swim camp in beautiful St. Petersburg. Year over year, this “all levels” program improves performance across a broad spectrum of athletes, ages, and skill levels. It’s exciting to have athletes return each year and welcome newcomers.
An immersive experience like swim camp has benefits that cannot be gained in solo, weekly training. It’s a rare opportunity to disconnect and focus on one thing – swimming! Athletes learn about, practice, review video, and incorporate fundamental principles into their open water swim stroke and learn a few Jedi master tricks along the way. Athletes are guided by professional coaches who offer targeted feedback and direction, and are inspired by the energy of the group. For many triathletes, this kind of swim experience simply is not available in their hometowns.
The March 2022 camp was no exception – fins, snorkels, drills, swim sets, a great outdoor pool, and great company. Many thanks to the great crew of triathletes and swimmers who made it such a blast. Coach Earl Walton and I watched with big grins as each swimmer developed a better swim stroke, moved more fluidly in the water, and gained open water confidence. As always it was huge fun and hugely rewarding.
Intrigued? Got a little FOMO? Join us for the upcoming camp from May 13-15, 2022!
