All Total Endurance athletes receive personal coaching from Cycling and Triathlon Coach Ken Bryson
I have been involved in endurance sports for over 25 years, initially as a runner taking part in marathons and ½ marathons, then as a duathlete competing in events such as the annual cross Scotland “Highland Cross”. After discovering that i was better suited to cycling than running i focused on cycling for 15 years as a cyclist and coach. I compete mainly in individual “time trial” events and I have raced all distances from 5 miles to 24 hours in addition to long distance tours including a tour from Malaga to Aberdeen covering 2,200 miles in 21 days. In the last few years I have returned to Duathlon and running events and in 2008 I set a Marathon Personal Best 22 years after my last Marathon. In 2009 I improved my personal best by almost 5 minutes to 3:14:03. In 2010 I made another improvement, reducing my time to 3:09:08
I have been a cycling coach since 1994 and have coached all ages and abilities from juniors to Super Veterans and from beginners to British Champions and Commonwealth Games competitors. I am also an athletics and Triathlon coach.
As a coach I am interested in helping people of all ages, abilities and experience to make the most of their available time to maximise their sporting potential. In order to achieve this I offer 1 to 1 coaching services, personalised training plans, fitness testing and ongoing fitness monitoring and feedback based on the latest scientific methods and software, including the use of heart rate or power based training zones.
In order to monitor training and improvement I use a custom designed, integrated training schedule and diary coupled with the latest Heart rate and power monitoring systems and software.
Please have a look on the athlete page for details of some of the elite cyclists I have coached over the years.
