Meet Coach Sharon Styles

I am a NCCP certified competition level triathlon coach and certified personal trainer working with athletes of all levels since 2010.  I have coached track and field and cross country running at the middle school and high school levels for over 25 years and have over 30 years of swim instruction experience.  I am now living the dream as a full time triathlon and run coach.    

I have been an athlete all my life, but I found my niche at 15 when I fell in love with running.  I was a member of the track and field and cross country running teams at the University of Saskatchewan from 1994-1996.  After becoming a mom I focused on competitive road racing before moving into triathlon in 2007.   Since then I have become a competitive age grouper from the sprint distance up to Ironman. 

​

I am a wife to a busy entrepreneur and mom to two awesome young adults.  I understand the importance of balancing work, and family while pursuing training.  In my free time I love to work in my garden, camp, hike, snowboard and go fishing.

• 2014 ITU World Champion W35-39 Standard Distance
