Working with Coach Jarrod Evans and the Triathlon Gold team has been a game changer for me. Jarrod's ability to keep me focused on doing the right workouts at the right intensity has enhanced my race performance tremendously. It has been great to be part of the Triathlon Gold team!
I am a former collegiate runner and physical therapist that specializes in sports and orthopedics that recently started training for triathlons. I had been searching for someone to complete a swim analysis and finally I was lucky enough to find Coach Evans. I completed a swim analysis and reviewed my training plan with Coach Evans and I have already seen great results. Coach Evans completed a very thorough swim analysis that included video assessment, on land and in pool drills to address swim stroke faults, and even a follow up with videos and pictures to highlight aspects of the stroke that need particular attention. Coach Evans also provided great insight to my training plan to maximize swim and bike training. Overall, Coach Evans is very knowledgeable and helpful and I couldn’t recommend him enough.
Amazing swim experience. I am a 50-year old near beginner swimmer with little coordination and even less water facility, but Jarrod's patience, clear instruction, and practical guidance both in and out of the pool has been a gamechanger. Additionally, although I have a hectic work and travel schedule, he has been very accommodating and made my life easier with a customized plan that includes strength training and workouts customized for wherever I happen to be.
I have been working with Jarrod Evans / Triathlon Gold and I fully endorse his professionalism and expertise as he has helped me develop my techniques and performance in a remarkable way. After winning my age group at an Olympic Distance Triathlon race (2021/Sep), I qualified for Nationals (2022, Aug) and wanted to get even more serious about my training. My wife contacted Jarrod and gave me his contact info as Christmas present (she is the best, I know!).
After being thoroughly evaluated for a month, Jarrod accepted me in his training team and I coordinated virtually with Jarrod weekly, getting very detailed training plans for each week and having to review each session for detailed feedback. I found his evaluation of my skills to be very comprehensive and insightful as it helped me identify aspects of my technique that needed changes and polishing.
My times and performance improved significantly in just 2 months, and I won again first place in my (new) age group, feeling stronger and clearly displaying high confidence and comfort in areas that were formerly not my forte (swimming & cycling).
Jarrod is not just very knowledgeable of this discipline and its success secrets, but he is also very motivational and supportive of the real life needs of amateur (and all) athletes. Things that interfere with training and he helped me bring a total sense of continuity and sustainability to my sessions even across having Covid, going through family losses and a lot of international travel with season changes. I was swimming in a pool in winter and in the ocean in the summer the day after, with cycling on all different landscapes - and back to winter the next week. He also has and been supporting my investments on technology with a wise set of advice that maximized ROI.
I trust Jarrod to stand by me throughout my quest to my best performance. He is truly empowering and has made of my "second job" of training, one that I enjoy the most. The journey is truly being as rewarding as the destination.
The head coach at Triathlon Gold - Jarrod Evans - is as knowledgeable as they come. Triathlon coaching is an intense commitment, and Jarrod shows up 24/7, 365. Personally, Triathlon Gold and Jarrod have played a huge role in athletic and personal development. From clearly set workouts, top-tier communication, and constant support, I've been really impressed with Triathlon Gold over my past few months of working with the organization.
Jarrod is fantastic. Prior to meeting him, I trained for almost two years with limited improvements and was recommended Jarrod to help me diagnose what was holding me back. He was not only incredibly generous with his time, but also helped me pinpoint the issues and showed me a path to a running time that I previously did not consider even remotely within my reach. I highly recommend Jarrod to anyone who is looking to improve their performance, whether professional or (serious) amateur!
As an age group athlete, I was looking at a triathlon coach and found Jarrod. Since our first phone call, he is professional, dedicated and committed to my goals.
Within just few months, i made significant gain in my performance in all three sport. Jarrod applied his expertise and knowledge to tailor my training to my goals and my work schedule (amateur triathlete). Additionally, in multiple occasions, he has taken the time to educate me in different sports allowing me to gain deeper understanding of what we are working on and enabling me to be self sufficient in my training session.
Would recommend Jarrod to anyone looking for a committed coach and present for you whenever you need him.
Jarrod stands out among triathlon coaches, especially for age groupers with busy professional and family lives. He is adaptable, empathetic, pragmatic, brings good cheer and encouragement in his communication, and gets the challenge in balancing the tension and priorities between sports, family and work. You never feel Jarrod's focus is anywhere other than on the athlete and you never feel belittled for anything you did not quite understand or accomplish.

Jarrod has been by far the most knowledgeable, invested, dedicated and professional coach I have been privileged enough to have. The level of communication Jarrod creates with his athletes is next level. He is always available if anything happens, is extremely adaptable and most importantly provides an extremely high standard of individuality and specificity to each athlete. I have thoroughly enjoyed being coached by Jarrod and have been very happy with the large progressions I have made in a relatively short period of time.
I recently began working with Coach Jarrod from Triathlon Gold. My experience so far has been top notch. I interviewed several triathlon coaches after feeling like I had plateaued. I picked Jarrod because of his impressive resume, but also because he has excellent communication skills. I wanted to work with someone who would be attentive to my needs as an age group athlete and help me get to the next level. I have big goals, and I feel he takes that seriously. He explains in detail what needs to be done in order to achieve my goals, and he is a patient and knowledgeable coach. I appreciate the personalized attention, as I have already learned so much from him! I can see so much improvement after just a couple of months. I am looking forward to continuing the process!
