Hello, My Name is

Aaron Kolk

As a coach Aaron believes his role is to come alongside and help each athlete to achieve their individual goals. Structuring training in a collaboration with the athlete based on his/her schedule, athletic history and knowledge base provides the perfect coach/athlete relationship. Communication is paramount to this coaching style and is high on Aaron’s list of priorities with an athlete. Aaron uses his background as a lifelong runner thirst for knowledge of endurance sport to guide his methodology into his athletes training. While a lot can be learned through books and certifications, he believes the best training principles are adapted through experience and understanding how to apply the science in real world situations, not just what works in a lab.

Aaron continues his education daily through the use of mentors, conversations with peers and staying up to date on the new trends and comparing with tried and true methods in the endurance world.

Athletically, Aaron started his endurance career running in high school and then for UNC-Wilmington. He ran 8:42 (3,000m),14:58 (5,000m) and 31:18 (10,000m). Overtraining and injury were the name of the game for him in this time which lead to an achilles surgery in 2015 due to a halgund’s deformity. Starting triathlon in 2017 after running for 17 years, it wasn’t love at first attempt, but it gave the competitive fix needed. He wasn’t sold on triathlon, but after a few attempts at marathon builds in the next two years with no success Aaron decided to give triathlon a proper try in 2019. At the end of the year he won IM 70.3 Augusta and took his pro card. Then covid hit. After placing last in his first professional race at IM Florida in 2020, he knew it was time to get to work. Building volume and structuring appropriate intensity over the next few years Aaron has broken 4 hours in the 70.3 and finished a full in 8:42 (7:25 no swim full).
