A few questions.....How many of you receive coaching? What kind of coaching package did you purchase (amount of contact, training log review, price etc)? What level do you race at and what types of races do you participate in? What is your coach's background (knowledge base, sports competed in, level raced at, type of athletes coached)?

I'm looking into coaching for 2008. The coach I wanted to work with is booked solid and not currently taking on clients. This coach recommended another great coach to work with. My only concern is that this other coach is a professional triathlete and I am only interested in XC racing. Thoughts?
