I live close to the USAT training center in Clermont and they are offering a coaching certification. Level one (to start) this upcoming September. What do you think, should I go for it and get my certification? I have a degree in Biology and Medical Technology and a decent(Crappy) racing backround.

Do you think I might have something to share with others as a coach?

Sheldon

P.S. I am currently taking classes to get my RD(Registered Dietician). I hope to compete this degree in a year or so.

You can do it. I PM'd tribob a while back and told him he should do it too.

Having never been to the classes, it looks easy enough.

I would do it but my travel costs would at least triple the price. Don't they have coaches in the NE?

We can share a room and if you fly to West Palm or Ft. Lauderdale I can pick you up and we can drive together.

Hmmm, very tempting. Let me check the costs and with the boss.
