Dare to Dream e-Coaching
I have really enjoyed my Dare to Dream e-Coaching Program
since I started it years ago even though I make less money with the
program. I have been able to work with my athletes for longer
periods of time, get to know them better, and help develop them
further. I get quite a bit of satisfaction from the program by
being able to help riders more.
Most of my riders are still from categories 5 through 3 and come to
me because they are struggling, no other coaches can help them, and
they just want to be competitive at the front of the peloton and
enjoy the sport. But, because they make a longer term
commitment to me, I am able to take them further than most of them
thought they would be able to develop. This often causes them
to stay with me even longer and permits me to take them even
further.
For example, one struggling cat 3 college student came to me saying
I was his last hope before he quit the sport and all he wanted and
had not been able to get from any local or other Internet coach was
to just develop physically and mentally to where he could race at
the front of the cat 3 peloton and have fun. He liked the
results so well that he stayed with me for almost 3 years before
leaving the program much more than satisfied with what I had done
for him. By the start of the 3rd year, he was consistently
placing in the top 6 against US pro's and, a year after leaving my
program, called me from Spain telling me he had been recruited by a
Spanish pro team and thanking me for helping him achieve something
he had never thought was possible. I think I gave him a little
more than he expected.
