Episode 14 features Coach Tim Gerry. Year after year, Tim would watch his dreams of qualifying for Kona disappear in the last 10 miles of the run of IRONMAN Lake Placid. As he was falling apart, QT2 athletes were passing him and earning their Kona slots. He knew he was training hard, but something was missing. In 2014, he reached out to QT2 Systems, and came on as an athlete. The next year, he qualified for Kona. What was the difference? "Solid recovery. Doing hard days hard. Doing easy days easy. Following a racing plan. Following a nutrition plan. Practice." All simple actions, but put together they make all of the difference.
After racing with QT2 Systems for several years, Tim decided that he wanted to get more involved and joined as a coach in 2017. Tim coaches athletes of various ages and experiences, but has a soft spot for working with beginners. He gets to know his athletes, and works to create programs that both fit within their lives and help them achieve their goals.
