About Miller Sports Coaching

“As a coach, I strive to learn and understand each athlete’s unique personality and goals in order to assist them in reaching their full potential. I believe that listening to an athlete’s dreams and desires is a vital first step in creating a plan of attack for success. Training plans are an important component of coaching but creating a relationship where I understand the challenges and obstacles that the “rest” of their life brings is extremely important to help me use innovative techniques and encouragement to succeed with those goals.”

 

I’ve always enjoyed competing and being outdoors and after a successful collegiate soccer career, I quenched my desire for competition through triathlons and bike races. After completing my master’s degree in Kinesiology (with an emphasis in Gerokinesiology- older adult fitness), I coordinated two wellness programs at California State University, Fullerton for ten years. This experience gave me the opportunity to share my passion for health and well-being with people from the age of 20 to 100 years old.

​

I believe that exercise and movement is the key to a happy and healthy life! While competing in every distance of triathlon including the Ironman and Xterra I was constantly approached by friends seeking my help with the various aspects of training and racing. My interest in working with friends and family continued to grow until I decided to transition my passion for sports and wellness into a coaching career.

​

In coaching for over a decade, I’ve been able to help athletes of all ages stay healthy and injury-free while reaching their goals in multiple disciplines including cycling (road, gravel, and MTB), triathlon, and ultra running. I’ve worked with novice to elite athletes and being a mom, I understand the demands of balancing life, parenting, training, and reaching high-performance goals. I’m a USA Cycling level 2 coach and BICP MTB coach and enjoy teaching bike lessons and mountain bike clinics to people of all ages. In my free time, I enjoy sharing the outdoors with my family. We enjoy backpacking, running, riding bikes, surfing, snowboarding, and eating great food!
