Sam Leicht

Athlete

An athlete, always.

I have been moving my whole life. Gymnastics first, then soccer, hurdles, and dance, and now HYROX, triathlon, CrossFit and anything with a net. Training is how I learned to coach, and it's how I stay motivated with lifelong fitness.

Swim, bike, run

Triathlon

I race triathlon every year, across sprint, Olympic and half-distance (70.3). Full ironman coming soon.

Competition

CrossFit

I have done CrossFit since 2012 and competed in it, including the CrossFit Open and Quarterfinals. It the base for my coaching methodology.

No start line, no medal table. Jared and I mapped our own 26.2 miles through Peninsula State Park and ran every one of them.

For fun

Volleyball and pickleball.

Volleyball whenever I can find a net, and pickleball because I love it. Invite me to play and I'm there.
