Coach Benoit

Hey Tribute! 👋

I'm Benoit, coach of Tribut Triathlon (cycling/spinning and running)... and incidentally, a human guinea pig for triathlon for almost 35 years. Yes, I started doing triathlons back when GPS watches didn't exist, when training was done "by feel," and when carb-loading sometimes involved overcooked spaghetti. In short, I've got a few kilometers (and stories) under my belt!

I started out as an athlete, which gave me the sports bug—but don't worry, it's cured with effort and enjoyment. It was so contagious that it led me to get a bachelor's degree in physical education. I still teach today because sharing knowledge, explaining, and encouraging are clearly in my DNA. And let's face it: I love seeing that lightbulb go off when someone finally understands why it's not just suffering that leads to progress.

I'm a certified Triathlon Québec coach, but above all, I'm a motivating, attentive coach… and slightly obsessed with perfect technique. If your stride resembles a lava lamp, don't worry: I'll help you—with kindness, humor, and a few well-placed corrections.

The successes of others give me immense satisfaction… almost as much as a well-executed training session.

So, if you're looking for a coach who will help you progress seriously without ever taking themselves too seriously, who believes in fun as much as performance, and who will help you become the best version of yourself in triathlon…
