In my second year of racing, I was involved in a serious accident. I knew if I wanted to return to racing and do well, I was going to need a top notch coach and training regimen. Shortly after I was able to get out of a wheel chair, I began working with Kathy Zawadzki. Two short years later I won the Master's National Road Championship. Even though I'm much stronger now than before my accident, I can't imagine racing without a coach. There's an art and a detailed science to coaching that far exceeds anything I can read in a book. Kathy understands both the science and the art. She stays current on the latest studies and techniques. Then Kathy tailors that knowledge specifically to me. I know that my training plan is designed for me, and that she continually adjusts my plan based on my performance, my recovery, and other aspects of my life that can impact my training. As for the art part of coaching, Kathy continually invests time and energy in knowing me as an individual. She knows how to talk to me so that I understand and believe in our plan. She knows what to say and when to say it to keep me motivated, to keep me foc used on the right things, and to help my calm down when I get to a big event and things aren't going as planned. Simply put, my success on the race course is due in large part to the coaching I receive from Kathy. I can't do my best without her and I feel extremely fortunate to be a client of Peak to Peak, and be an athlete of Kathy's.

Peak to Peak Athlete Since:  2006

I've been racing for 11 years so have had the opportunity to figure out what works for me and what doesn't with respect to training. But a couple years ago, I felt like I had "plateaued" and just wasn't improving despite the effort I was putting out. I contacted Peak to Peak Training and after talking with Kathy, decided that working with her might help. Kathy's approach to training turned out to be just what I needed. She really emphasizes training smart instead of just training hard. My workouts are more varied now, I'm making the most of my training time, and am really happy with my improved performance and results.

Ever since starting to work with Jon Heidemann four years ago, my performance on the bike has only gotten better and better. Peak to Peak works so close with their clients, and do such personal work. Having experienced this coaching style, I would not go anywhere else. Jon Heidemann has taken my ability and stretched it to the absolute max. He has guided me in training and in racing. I cannot imagine myself having gotten this far in cycling without the help and guidance from Peak to Peak Training Systems.

Peak to Peak Athlete Since:  2009

I am a competitive athlete from very young whose priorities have changed from athletics to family, friends and work.  With staying active (and competitive) somewhere in the mix of all of it!  Being self employed I found myself choosing to work just a little more instead of go for a ride.  Over the last few years I have had some OK results for as little as I found myself riding.  When I did ride I was the classic “Masters” athlete.  Taking my few hours and just riding hard because I had to (or thought).   Meeting Jon a couple of years ago and spending some time with him and Kathy last fall, having a coach was a thought in the back of my mind.  My goal with becoming a Peak to Peak athlete is accountability (on my part) and improvement on the use of the time that I do get to ride.  I now have an organized plan to accomplish the goals that I set out there with Jon.  The first goal is just getting my time on the bike, which I get now.  Now I have a structured plan on top of that.   As a plus my wife says I am not as irritating.  I don’t get a lot of time to train with kids, our family schedule and work.   Jon has made the best plan each week to fit with the hours I have available and the areas of improvement I need and want to focus on.  So far I have learned a lot about myself with the testing I completed at the Training Center and the program Jon has for me.  It is also fun to look at the plan and fill out the training log with goals accomplished.  I plan to be a Peak to Peak athlete for a while.
