Testimonials from participants in the 2003-2004 Team Ironman programs:

As a member of Mark's 321 team coaching group, I have great accolades for his program.  Mark is an experienced professional athlete and coach and the program reflects his goals of maximum potential and race day readiness of his triathletes.  Even though I work full time doing 12 hour shifts in the Emergency Room, I was able  to do all the workouts and felt ready for race day with lots of enthusiasm.  321 caching is a name you can trust to get you to the finish line with a smile.

The Ironman Canada Team Training program was the guide I needed to finish my first Ironman.  The workouts in the program are simple to understand and saved me so much time in training.  This program helped me get a feel for what a real weeks training for an Ironman feels like.  I enjoyed the program and recommend it to anyone who is doing their first Ironman. Mark thank you for all your help in getting me to reach my dream.

Hi Mark,
I wanted to let you know that this team training program has been an incredible experience for me. When I signed up for Ironman Canada I had no idea of how to train properly. My biggest fear was getting injured. The program that you put together, along with your feedback and the input from other athletes made this a truly incredible journey. You had the perfect balance of building, rest and recovery. I look forward to working with you again next year as I take on this event one more time.
