Coach Peter uses all of the knowledge he has collected throughout his life to train his athletes. Growing up in an environment where sports was the country's pride, Peter was privileged to have received a very personal coaching approach from the time he was 6 years old. Add to that his triathlon experience since 1994 and his professional triathlon career since 1999, and you have a lifetime of sports knowledge.
“Of course there is the importance of learned and studied knowledge! However, I believe that tailored instruction and advice from a coach with years of training and racing experience is irreplaceable. Also there is no substitute to the training – what you put in, you will get out”
- Peter Kotland
Coach Peter works with athletes of ANY ability as long as they have the desire to succeed and to improve. From athletes who are trying to finish their first triathlons to athletes preparing for World Championships. Coach Peter limits the number of athletes he coaches, as good quality coaching requires time and personal attention.
Any coaching emergency at any hour! Almost.

"I've been training with Coach Peter off and on since 1997. Since that time, when I was training for my first marathon, I have learned to bike, learned to swim, and have completed 10 ultramarathons and dozens of triathlons. I PR'd in the marathon last year at the age of 38 and PR'd 5k and 10k this year at the age of 39. I also just finished my 7th Ironman with an 85 minute PR. All without a training-related injury while with Coach Peter. I could never have done it without the coaching and instruction I've received. I believe in Coach Peter." - ME, age 39
