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.

Jarrod Evans uses a holistic approach to individually train each of his athletes. He considers all aspects of sports performance to formulate a plan: psychology, personal interests, physiological response, training background, and more. Jarrod trained me to progress not just for the next season, but to keep progressing and enjoy the sport long into the future.

Jarrod Evans has been one of the most interactive and knowledgeable coach’s of my athletic career. If you are looking to see some progress in this grueling sport of triathlon, Jarrod Evans will be able to take you to the next level. Jarrod doesn’t neglect anything, he takes time to focus on each and every weakness without disregarding your strengths.

Professional, patient, detail oriented, intelligent and organized, Jarrod Evans embodies everything I look for in a coach. For Coach Jarrod, coaching is more than just a job, it’s what he loves to do. His passion for the sport and dedication to the development and well-being of his athletes is incredible. I am so grateful to be a current athlete in his squad.
I joined Coach Jarrod Evan’s squad never having never done a triathlon in my life. I attribute my progression from total newbie to elite ITU triathlete to Coach Jarrod. He works hard each day to create a world-class training environment in which we can grow, learn, push ourselves and achieve. I know I still have a lot of learning and growth ahead of me, but I couldn’t think of a better environment to do so in!

Coach Jarrod Evans -- founder and head coach at Triathlon GOLD brings almost a decade of coaching experience to his role as well as years of professional racing prior to that. I joined Jarrod's squad in order to further commit to my goal of competing at Olympic Trials. Jarrod is not scared to push his athletes but does an incredible job of finding that delicate balance of expanding limits without overdoing it. He is very analytical and thoughtful and is on deck for every session we complete. I've seen firsthand why he has been able to develop more than a couple elite female triathletes currently racing at the top of the sport. I highly recommend reaching out to Jarrod if you want to take your performance to the next level, whether at the junior elite, NCAA, or elite level.

Whether you are trying to make major improvements in an area or looking for a coach to polish you off, Jarrod is your coach. His expertise in all aspects of triathlon combined with his tireless planning and workout management, you are sure to achieve the progress you desire.

My progress in just 12 months with Jarrod included:

3+ minute drop in my 1500m swim

Faster and more fluid transitions

Technical improvements on the bike

Increased threshold wattage on the bike

Running much closer to my 100% capability off of the bike.



I would encourage anyone who wants to improve their performance to strongly consider Jarrod, you will not leave any stone unturned in your efforts to become better.

Through luck and circumstance, I was one of the fortunate few to have had Jarrod Evans as a coach. Jarrod began with me as a (very) injured athlete with low confidence at the time. Not many people would take on a project like this, but without hesitation he did. I would be remiss if I did not credit where I am now to Jarrod Evans. He is by far and beyond one of the most patient and detail oriented coaches I have come across, and this alone speaks volumes. He created an environment of open communication and feedback that I believe was a key part to my success in continued health (and happiness!)
Though I am no longer with Jarrod, I use his approach daily in my continued training. He instilled and taught me some of the most valuable skills as an athlete to be able to reach the highest level. Whatever the future may hold, I credit and owe a lot to Jarrod Evans as a coach. Thank you!

Jarrod Evans possess every quality you’d want in a great coach. He’s motivational, caring, extremely knowledgeable, disciplined and dedicated to each of his athletes and the sport. More importantly, he instills these qualities in each of his athletes. He takes the time to build each athlete individually working on improving exactly what each individual needs specifically. His training and coaching technique not only builds a strong and well conditioned athlete, but also builds confidence in athletes to believe their ability to reach new goals.

I started off doing triathlon, training under another coach other than Jarrod and was doing ok but I wanted to get over my plateau in performance and everyone was telling me how good of a coach Jarrod was, so I made the tough decision to leave the coach and team I was training with at the time to get Jarrod’s help obtaining my goals which I have exceeded to date. In just a year and a half Jarrod trained me up to do my first Ironman and I completed it, in 9hours and 7 mins. I went onto become a 2 x Ironman World Age Group Champion as well thanks to Jarrod. Jarrod’s program makes training interesting and challenging but at the same time you don’t realise how much work you have actually put in. But what makes Jarrod such a successful coach is his passion for coaching. It is clear Jarrod is the hardest working and most dedicated coach I have ever met, he is worth far more than the fee charged. If you are willing to put in the work Jarrod will guide you to achieve and exceed your goals. I am forever thankful for Jarrod’s service in helping me be the best I can be.

In 2012 I raced my sixth ironman in Busselton hoping for a Kona slot. I had a good day, but only finished third in my age group getting smashed by two athletes racing their first ironman (one of whom was a current member of Jarrod’s HP Team). I knew I’d put in the work and shouldn’t have been beaten in the way I had. At the time I had a coach here in Perth who was very good and helped me fall in love with triathlon. For that, I’m truly thankful. However, I had limited contact with him in terms of my training and preparation. I felt in order to improve I needed a coach with more involvement. Jarrod reviewed all my training files daily and we corresponded on a daily basis and made change and improvement on a daily basis. It is a continually evolving partnership. Together we made improvements I never would have thought possible. He has coached 25+ World Age Group Champions and his athletes results speak for themselves. I’m eternally grateful to Jarrod and his team for helping me full-fill my dream of being an Ironman World Age Group Champion and I’m excited about what we can accomplish in the future.

In the 18 months I have been working with Jarrod I have achieved results beyond my expectations. From 5 consecutive AG wins over various distances, to obtaining my professional license and starting my Pro 70.3 Career with a podium. This is a testament to his coaching. Jarrod is extremely professional, patient and detail orientated. I have learned an incredible amount from him in a very short period of time and can not recommend Jarrod highly enough for any athlete who is serious about taking their performance to the next level.
