  • Jenn recently changed up her Job hours to allow her more time to recover and train. Choosing a more quality lifestyle that has allowed her to have more intensity in her training. As a result her speed and recovery has improved as well as her ability to compete over longer distances.

  • FTP’s can take some time to build and often times the goal of going longer in races can be mutually exclusive to getting faster. With this in mind Jenn has a plan to raise her FTP (Functional Threshold Paces and Power)

  • Trains with a Wahoo Kicrk/Zwift setup to deliver her training peaks sessions with accuracy.

  • Crazy good swimmer; Jenn has an edge when it comes to swimming and is usually at the front of her age for local swim races.

  • Jenn enjoys swimming year round at the local Tristar Athletes SMOG group in Redondo Beach.

  • Tristar family training; Jenn’s husband Doug Geiger also trains with her and they make a great team motivating each other in a “healthy competitive way.

  • Tristar ELITE team member

Custom training plan + advanced coaching education to support Jenn’s races, training and goals.

"Consistency trumps 'big days'. Continuously making deposits in the fitness bank, as small as they may sometimes seem, will make a big withdrawal on race day that much more manageable. That said, every so often 'life happens' and some course-correction is inevitable - that's where the TriStar coaching approach, backed by science and experience, is guaranteed to make a difference." —Coach Attila Kelemen
