Why Choose Evolve?

Whether you are just getting started at endurance sports, setting out to finish an Ironman, or wanting to hone your racing skills at any distance, Evolve Coaching Systems can help you reach your goal. The Evolve coaches will work with you to create a training plan custom-built to fit your needs as an athlete and help you to manage your time so that you can enjoy life outside of training and racing.

As an Evolve Coaching Systems athlete, you will not only receive workouts that will help you excel in your swimming, biking, and running, but your coach will work with you on fueling, race pacing, and mental fitness, all of which are essential for race execution. The Evolve philosophy on racing extends beyond the pool or pavement, and will assist you to negotiate the physical and mental challenges that come with being an endurance athlete.

Evolve Coaching Systems LLC. is a Triathlon Coaching Company that offers individualized training plans for triathlon, swimming, cycling, and running.

“When I reflect on my race journey over the past few years, it’s impossible not to think about Coach Chris. He’s helped me get to where I am today and pushes me to where I should be tomorrow. While I balance a job that requires long hours and frequent travel, Chris ensures that my training plans can be adjusted to meet my needs and that I’ll be race ready, no matter what the journey may look like getting to the start line. I can turn to Chris for feedback, guidance, and encouragement not only for my fitness journey but for all parts of my life too. What started as a coach-athlete relationship has evolved into a true friendship that I’m sincerely grateful for.”

“After 20+ years of endurance sports, 14 Ironman races and numerous 70.3 races and marathons I was slowly getting slower. For the most part, I trained with no coach. I realized i needed more expertise and structure to get all I could out of my body. I hired Tori from Evolve and my training is going so much better! I follow her workouts religiously and, even after a huge injury pre-coaching, my times are improving and I am feeling so much stronger.”

“Coach Scott has been working with me for just over two years.   In that time I've seen a 30 minute improvement on my 70.3 time on the same course and a 70 minute improvement on my IronMan time on similar courses.   He has worked through my nutrition, GI, and dehydration issues, vastly improving my stamina.  Evolve's program goes beyond a training plan.   It is a lifestyle change that guides you to your peak performances!

“Hiring an Evolve Coach and working with Coach Katie has been one of the best decisions I have made for myself as a person and athlete. Through the last 4 years of working with Katie, I went from not being able to run more than a couple miles to a competitive runner, triathlete, and podium finisher. Most importantly, I have developed a confidence that I didn’t know could exist within me. Katie has helped me remain consistent through personally tailored training plans despite demanding work schedules, changing life circumstances, and injuries. She has empowered me to see my true potential as an athlete and person. I would not be where I am today without her coaching and support.”
