Meet Your Coaches

USAT-certified triathlon coach Kendra Kitson started her journey into triathlon while obtaining her BS in Nutrition and Dietetics. She now practices as a Registered Dietitian with her MS in Exercise Science.

She loves coaching all distances, but has a true passion for short-course racing. Short-course triathlon has given her the opportunity to race for Team USA all over the world. Coach Kendra's favorite discipline is cycling — as you can see so much and go so far on a bike.

A big accomplishment for Kendra was completing her own Tour de Cleveland 100-mile adventure. When she is not doing triathlon, Kendra likes to play soccer, sew and craft, and bake!

With over 40 years of experience in endurance racing, he has a strong focus on long and ultra-distance competition. As a nine-time Ironman finisher, Coach Pete enjoys drawing on his personal experience to help his athletes achieve their best performance.

On recovery days, Coach Pete enjoys spending time creating music, traveling with his wife, and snuggling with his kitties.
