“I cannot say enough about Robin and Rise Up Racing. I have had the desire to do a triathlon since I watched my daughter complete her first 70.3 five years ago. I never talked about it much with anyone because I am the most unlikely triathlete. I had heard about Robin and knew an athlete that she had coached so I made the leap and called her. Best decision ever. Not only is she knowledgeable as a coach but she is so positive and encouraging, and most of all, patient. Always answering all my questions – and I had A LOT! I have had many medical setbacks over the recent years, including hip replacement surgery. Robin’s coaching allowed me to train and prepare without any further injuries. I had doubts about completing a triathlon all along, but Robin never did! Not only was this my first tri – but my youngest son joined me and completed his first also. Had it not been for Robin’s coaching and encouragement I would never have made it to the start line let along finish. Anyone from a total novice like myself to an experienced athlete would benefit from Robin’s expertise. As an added bonus to training with Robin – I became a part of the Rise Up Racing team! I was fortunate to have two team members racing at Milheim and Sarah and Jackie were so helpful on race day. Being part of a team definitely has many perks and advantages and Robin has built an awesome community with Rise Up Racing. I am already planning on next year’s season and hope to participate in a team race event.”
