I was very fortune to be coached by Jarrod at my entry point into the sort of triathlon. Under his guidance, I improved my world ranking in two years from 343rd to 11th in the world in the 2 Years in the USA Collegiate Recruitment Program. He invests himself 100% in the process and is extremely dedicated to the athlete. Jarrod doesn't just focus or care about producing results, he cares about you as a person. Jarrod is a coach that will push you to be your best and who is excited to help you succeed.

I was honored to work with Jarrod Evans throughout my time in USA Triathlon’s Collegiate Recruitment Program. Diligent, punctual, and professional in his coaching demeanour, these first impressions remained true throughout the program. Every day his dedication and passion to be the best coach and develop his athletes to their greatest potential, was apparent. Without falter, rain or shine, he was on deck, at the track, or in the saddle with the team. His hands-on approach and total investment to each athlete as an individual is tribute their improvements and successes. Thanks to Jarrod and the CRP, I was able to fully commit to the sport of triathlon and achieve a goal set early in the season to half my ITU world ranking on the world stage.

I was fortunate enough to partner with Jarrod for two years at the start of my journey into ITU, draft-legal triathlon. Coming from a running background, I had a lot to catch-up on in the realm of multi-sport with a specific emphasis on swimming and cycling. Jarrod identified both my strengths and weaknesses, addressed them and coached me from essentially 'unranked' to a top-20 position in the world on the ITU World Rankings list. Together we've overcome challenges and achieved race results and rankings. But more importantly, Jarrod made sure to accomplish these goals with long-term vision and sustainability within sport. His person-centered approach, patience, diligence, dedication and professionalism are gold standard. Not only have I grown as a professional athlete, but I'm enriched as a person under his mentorship.

As an athlete, I have met many coaches attempting to assist athletes to optimize their latent talent, but none have managed to unite the theory and practice as Coach Jarrod has done for me. His dedication to discovering tools and techniques for athletes to use to improve their performance is outstanding.
Jarrod recognizes the importance of being attuned to the needs of the complete athlete. He understands the complexity involved in becoming extraordinary and attending to the core elements of success, thus being an invaluable asset to anyone pursuing excellence.
Jarrod has taught me that it is about maximizing the talents and opportunities you have by stretching your limits and working to overcome obstacles to goal attainment.
Jarrod’s knowledge in all areas and his constant support and guidance has played a vital role in who I am as an athlete, and the athlete and person I still want to become.

Jarrod Evans is an incredible coach! I’ve been fortunate enough to attend a number of training camps and one-on-one sessions with Jarrod over the past two years—this is what I have observed. Jarrod makes the effort to understand the background of his athletes and their personal experiences, and applies what he learns to improve individual instruction. Acknowledging my background in mechanical engineering, Jarrod explained the ways by which we decrease drag and increase propulsion in the water using principles I recognized from physics and fluid-dynamics. In doing so, Jarrod taught me new techniques by following fundamentals that I was already familiar with. To re-enforce these new techniques, Jarrod exercised extreme care--photographing proper finger placement, and prodding me with a stick every time my elbow dropped underwater. Attention to these minute details encapsulate Jarrod’s greatest strength as a high-performance coach, and demonstrate the thoughtfulness he brings to his training sessions. With that, I highly recommend Jarrod for anyone seeking to improve their swim and break into that first pack.
I can say without reservation that I wholeheartedly trust both the techniques and philosophies that Jarrod applies to help athletes reach their potential. As a coach, he has a proven track record of success, not just years of experience, and it shows in the way he communicates and executes short term and long term goals. I had some concerns that joining a high performance program would be impersonal and results driven, and that I could find a more impactful way to improve for my time, money, and energy. Almost immediately those concerns were put to rest - I knew that whatever effort I gave would be matched and driven forward with purpose and vision. Jarrod is approachable, invested in each of his athlete's development and health, and has created an environment of excellence and support aided by high level sponsors. I'm equally grateful and incredibly stoked to be training and racing with Triathlon Gold.
I had the privilege to be coached by Coach Evans for a year in the USA Triathlon Collegiate Recruitment Program and truly feel that he did everything in his power to make me the best I could possibly be. He is tough but fair and will never sugar coat anything, and that is exactly what any athlete who wishes to improve needs. His knowledge, experience, and passion for the sport of triathlon puts him head and shoulders above nearly all other coaches in the world. I have nothing but good things to say about coach Jarrod Evans.
I thoroughly enjoyed having Jarrod as my coach. He knew exactly what it required to get where we wanted to be then he implemented this into the training with highly focused drills and workouts. Moreover, his ability to read my body language and demeanor at training sessions was second-to-none allowing us to work well as a team. I hope more athletes have the opportunity to work with Jarrod.

Coach Jarrod has made my transition from single sport to triathlon as seamless as possible. He is incredibly patient and takes the time to get to know his athletes to create a specifically tailored training program that is most beneficial for the athlete. Coach Jarrod knows exactly how far to push our limits to get the most out of us to achieve major gains in training and performance. I am very confident in his ability to form me into the best possible athlete I can be and am incredibly grateful for a coach who believes in my abilities. I would highly recommend Coach Jarrod for any triathlete who is trying to achieve his or her full potential.

Since starting my triathlon career, Jarrod Evans has helped me go from strength to strength. Over the past years I have become a 3 x Victorian Champion, 3 x Australian Silver Medallist and reached my short term goal this year of becoming Australian Junior Champion. Jarrod’s training models are second to none and the team atmosphere is phenomenal. Jarrod is constantly evolving his theories, programs and directive through research and practical implementation. I cant endorse him highly enough.
