Greg Fordyce
Triathlon Coach
“Coach Greg, your triathlon training class has been an AWESOME experience and I know I couldn’t have learned as much if I had done it on my own. I appreciate your time, knowledge and advice over the past few months. I hope to get through my first tri in Naperville and use all you’ve taught me to continue to grow and feel more comfortable competing in the future.” – Pam R.
