Black, DSc, M.Ed, ATC/L, PT, CSCS, IDNC, and Sports Medicine Specialist</strong></p> <p><em>Athlete to Triathlete</em> is a fabulous resource for athletes venturing into the sport of triathlon. The book discusses basic training principles, details each discipline, gives helpful tips on transitions, and shares important ancillary training methods such as strength training and stretching for triathletes. Additionally, Marni is a sports dietitian and has a whole chapter on proper daily nutrition and race fuel. The book ends with a great 12-week training plan that can be modified based on athletes' fitness levels. I highly recommend this book to any aspiring triathlete and if you follow her expertise, you will surely succeed.<strong>--Meghan Fillnow, fillnowcoaching.com</strong></p> <p>Marni Sumbal's new book, <em>Athlete to Triathlete</em> was an exceptional read, leaving every question answered so an athlete can succeed as they enter the sport of triathlon! She addressed many often-overlooked components that are needed to succeed on race day. I appreciate her holistic approach so the athlete leaves knowing that triathlon is far more than just swim, bike, and run training. I feel like an athlete could succeed in a triathlon knowing nothing prior to reading this book!<strong>--Kelly Fillnow, Founder/CEO at Kelly Fillnow Coaching Company</strong></p> <p>Marni Sumbal's book, <em>Athlete to Triathlete</em>, is one of the most complete guides for athletes of all levels that I have read. Marni Sumbal is a 'real life' coach, dealing with 'real life' people. Her ability to make the sport of triathlon less intimidating is a wonderful testament to the work she does on a daily basis. They say, 'There are no dumb questions, ' but let's be honest we all have questions that we are afraid to ask. Marni's book answers so many questions and lays out such an accessible journey that even if you read the book and never toe the line in an actual race your life will just be better! Leading a healthy and well-balanced life is actually what most of us are after. Thank you, Marni for sharing your knowledge, experience, and passion for sport with all of us.<strong>--Erin Carson CSCS, ecfitstrength.com</strong></p> <p>Fantastic resource for anyone looking to embark on the journey to become a triathlete.
