Jeff focuses on racing half-ironman and ironman-distance triathlons. While Jeff's primary emphasis is on coaching age-group triathletes and runners of all levels, his coaching philosophy also includes combining traditional personal training services with an emphasis on long-term health and wellness. He enjoys working with athletes to develop a strategy for improving overall health using a combination of aerobic exercise, strength training and nutrition. Jeff is on staff at the Athletic Club of Bend and is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association.
