Second American finisher, Kona ‘96 (Ironman World Championships)
A Silver Medalist in the Atlanta '97 Olympics, Edouard
swim-trained with Alex as a member of the Russian National and Olympic
Pentathlon teams.
Finishing third in Switzerland ('95) and sixth at Kona ('96)
for the 45's age group, Anatoly swim-trained with Alex as a member
of the Ukranian National Pentathlon team. Anatoly was a multi-sport
coach at Alex's Olympic Institute in Lvov and he has been the full
time coach of some of Russia's top triathletes and pentathletes
(many of whom train with him as members of the Ukraine National
Pentathlon Team). Pending his visa approval, we anticipate his
on-site training expertise for the Aqua-Terra Triathlon Training
clinics in the spring and summer.
From age eleven, Alex individually coached Gregory Bremel to two
World Pentathlon Championships and two Russian National Pentathlon
Championships.
Mikhalus, finishing 30th in the 1997 Kona World Championships
(13th fastest swim time), swim-trained with Alex as a member of the
Russian National Pentathlon Team. He is one of several elite masters
who will be visiting our Masters and Aqua-Terra Triathlon Training
programs in '98 (look to swim with Bogdan the week of Nov., 1st.).
Svatkovsky (far left), 1997 World Pentathlon Champion,
swim-trained with Alex as a member of the Russian National Pentathlon
Team. He has won several international and national level pentathlon
events. He relaxes in San Antonio with Olympic Silver Medalist
Zanovka (far right) before competing in the U.S. open Pentathlon
Championships.
We really like this guy. A member of the 1970 NCAA Division I
Champion Indiana University Swim Team, and a seasoned multisport coach
(swimming, track, and basketball), Ted has been at the helm for
several winning programs including the Grover Cleveland Middle School
Track Team (1991 City Champions). He has been a frequent finalist in
the Bay State Games (Track and Field, Swimming, Hammer Throw) and a
first alternate at the United States Olympic Festival (Kayak). Ted,
has given us a warm welcome at his Mason Pool facility, and we look
forward to a world-class, swim-training partnership.
