Testimonial from the Groups :

Farrell Simon- 1st year triathlete  Finished in 5:45:36. 

I could not have asked for a better training environment than with the group workouts.  The individuals that composed the group were always cheering each other on and there by your side even outside of the training environment.  Racheal made the training experience fun and always pushed us to go the extra mile.  When I started I had trouble running a mile, but through the group sessions and Racheals training program I am comfortable running 13 plus with more distance to come.  It was truly a great experience.
