“As an endurance athlete with Type 1 diabetes, Susan has been instrumental in helping me overcome what I felt was a liability by creating a fuel and training plan that has allowed me to accomplish my fitness goals while not compromising my health. Over the four years that Susan and I have worked together, she has worked strategically and patiently with me through injuries, introduced new skills, and prepared me to race longer distances each year. Our work together this year resulted in my best season yet with my first 70.3, a metric century Gran Fondo, and medaling in three OWS races. Next season, I plan to compete in 10 races, including two 70.3s, all under the guidance of Race Smart’s Susan Kitchen.”
