In the past three years I've read multiple books and educated myself to be a better athlete and keep improving.  At the end of last year I clearly felt that I plateaued in performance and I really wanted to try what difference a real coach would make.

I've had Sam as my coach since April.  I had been pretty disappointed with my performance in the first half of the season as I struggled to even finish some races where I had historically been very dominant.  Going from off the back to four top 10s and a fourth place overall at Cascade stage race in the span of 2-months was something I didn't think was possible.  I 100% know that I wouldn't have performed that way had I continued "coaching" myself.  It definitely improved my performance more than a set of wheels and a new bike would have.
