Testimonials
“Marilyn is a truly caring coach full of knowledge. With her philosophy on life and training program, you will find your hidden potential that will not only help you achieve your athletic goals but also succeed in life. She has gained my trust, and I know that if I follow her plan I will achieve my goals. She has helped me discover who I am, take accountability, and commit to my pursuit of excellence in every aspect of my life. She goes beyond the sport, always exceeding expectations, and I can always count on her being there.” – María Fernanda Díaz
“Today’s note of gratitude is to Marilyn. I had known her for two years before I asked her if she would coach me. I dug her work ethic and drive, her call-it-like-it-is persona/attitude, and her sense of humor. That was nearly ten years ago. She then took a knock-kneed, weak cyclist with a degenenerative hip condition and diabetes and showed the way to steady improvement all the way to world championships. She’s been unwavering in her belief, and I am grateful for that, and so much more.” ~ Eddie Fishman
“As a life-long athlete who just entered my 60's, I am profoundly grateful to have found Marilyn to help me accomplish my goals in this season of life. Her focus, expertise, professionalism, and compassionate coaching has brought me to fitness levels I could not have achieved alone. She coaches world class athletes and I appreciate how seriously she takes me and my goals as an ordinary athlete.” ~Steve Titus
“When I first started I never thought I would ever be an athlete that could toe the line at the World Championships. But over time I started to believe. I believed first because Marilyn believed in me. A huge thank you to Marilyn who saw a triathlete hiding out in a weightlifting room and transformed me from scratch. You just never know how much your life will change when you meet someone and they truly believe in you. That is what Marilyn gives all of us. A vision for who we can be before we have it ourselves.”~ Jennifer Vollmann
