Hi, I’m Bec
I’m a triathlon coach and I wasn’t always confident in open water.
I didn’t panic before my first open water race. I panicked during it.
Through experience, coaching, and repetition, I developed simple strategies that helped me stay calm, start races with confidence, and stop fearing the swim leg.
This guide shares the exact strategies I still use myself and with my athletes today.
