2025 DEKA World Championship December 5-7, 2025 (Coach POV) This year at DEKA Worlds I wore a new hat. One I've been beyond excited to wear: Coach. Last year I had my one (and only) athlete, Leigh, onboard before DWC. This year we rolled in as a squad of 9. I could write a New York Times Best Seller but i'll keep things short-ish. This weekend I promised myself two things: I would try my absolute best to catch every one of my athletes on course & make sure they hear me and I would show up for them in any capacity they needed throughout the weekend. This weekend was just as important for them as it was for me. My team balled out. Each one of them stepped on to the start line confident and ready to battle. It showed in their preparation, how they carried themselves on race day, and how they executed their races. When the weekend concluded the results showed 17 podiums (5 Elite/12 Age Group), 23 Top-5 finishes and loads of PR's. It's a privilege to be in this position. I'm proud....
