Founded in November 2007 by coaches Patrick McCrann and Rich Strauss, Endurance Nation is a virtual triathlon team for long course triathletes with over 400 members. Rich and Patrick use their proven training plans, support in the forum, a growing library of instructional content (podcasts, videos, and ebooks), training camps and a strong team presence at races to deliver incredible results, quality, and value to the members of Team EN.

Team Coaching
Launched on January 5th, our Team Coaching approach represents the next evolution in online triathlon coaching. Team Coaching is: Your training plan + Supporting docs + Support from the coaches and the Team…all for one low monthly fee. The result is a team of athletes training with the same suite of training plans, under the guidance of two professional coaches, with instruction, plan tweaks, and team mojo delivered efficiently through video, podcasts, and interaction with the coaches and team in the forums. The team coaching model works for swimmers, runners, and practically every other sport on the planet…and now it works for triathletes. Team Coaching allows us to provide 110% of the effectiveness of expensive one-on-one coaching at a fraction of the cost.  Take our Tour to learn more.

Patrick and I have our Google Readers tuned in to several small business, entreprenuer and marketing blogs as a tool to help us solve EN problems by find solutions to similar issues applied outside of the world of online triathon coaching. It’s amazing how many flavors of wheels have been tried by other people so you don’t have too…

Anywho, one of Seth Godin’s recent blog posts really got us thinking:

“The goal is to create a product that people love. If people love it, they’ll forgive a lot. They’ll talk about it. They’ll promote it. They’ll come back. They’ll be less price sensitive. They’ll bring their friends. They’ll work with you to make it better.

If you can’t do that, though, perhaps you can make your service or product less annoying.”
