Triathlon Coaching
I've been a full time Triathlon and Endurance Sport Coach in Hawaii (Triathletes, ultra runners, channel swimmers, cyclists) for 15+ years. In that time, I've studied physiology and training principles and am confident that no matter where you're starting from now, I can help you improve if you're willing to do the smart disciplined work required to build the fitness for higher performance. Succeeding in endurance sport is about putting all the pieces together in a way that is sustainable for long term growth. I incorporate mindset coaching as well because athletes who are healthy, happy, and excited to race are more likely perform their best.

Why Choose a Hawaii Based Coach?
Training for triathlon in Hawaii isn’t the same as training anywhere else. The heat, humidity, wind, and ocean conditions demand a different level of preparation—and a nuanced approach to coaching.
I’m Michelle Simmons, a triathlon and endurance coach based in Oahu, Hawaii with over 15 years of experience helping athletes train smarter and perform at their best.
I’ve raced and coached athletes through the unique demands of Hawaii events, including Ironman and Ironman 70.3, and I understand what it takes to prepare for these conditions—physically and mentally.
My coaching goes beyond just writing workouts. I focus on helping you:
-
Develop efficient movement patterns that reduce fatigue and injury risk
-
Fuel properly so you can actually adapt to your training
-
Build awareness and execution so you can perform on race day—not just in training
Whether you’re training for your first triathlon or aiming to improve your performance at races like Ironman or Ironman 70.3 Hawaii, you’ll get thoughtful, personalized coaching designed around your life, your goals, and your long-term development as an athlete.

Swimming faster isn’t always about trying harder. Most of the time, it’s about moving better.
In this video, I’ll show you how your head position influences your entire body, and how a simple shift can help you feel more balanced, relaxed, and efficient in the water.
What If...?
What if you could turn down the volume on that sh*t talking voice in your head?
What if you could wake up in the morning feeling excited about your day?
What if you could replace feelings of overwhelm with clarity and purpose?
What if you had the courage to pursue your dreams without self-doubt?
The way you choose to frame situations for yourself matters.
Is it an obstacle? Or is it an opportunity?
