Why I coach the way I do.
I’ve never measured a season by what someone did on their best day. I measure it by whether they’re still here a year later — still curious, still building, still enjoying the work.
There’s no pace you need to hit to train with me. No podium, no résumé. Just the willingness to keep showing up when it isn’t convenient — because that’s where progress actually lives. Not in the heroic week. In the ordinary one you didn’t skip.
Eight hours or twenty-eight, we build around your life, not the other way around.
If that’s how you want to train, my inbox is open. brite.coach — link in bio.

Pool swimmers are often the worst open water swimmers.
That sounds counterintuitive. But open water is not an advanced version of what you do in a lane. It’s a completely different skill set — and most pool-trained athletes have never been taught any of it.
Sighting. Cold water entry. Drafting. Breathing in chop. Reading current. Managing contact. None of these come from pool fitness. All of them are coachable.
The Brite Summer Open Water Swim Program opens June 16 at Kits Beach. Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6:45am, through August 27. Coach Liam Clawson-Honeyman in the water with you every session.
1x/week — $295 + GST
2x/week — $575 + GST

Sharon Hammond has been training with Brite for >12 years. She entered the London Marathon ballot for the first time long before she'd ever run a step. She got a spot this year through a charity close to her heart — and this race carried a weight that had nothing to do with pace or performance.
In December, four months out, her training took a turn and was no longer linear. What followed was rehab, patience, a lot of quiet determination, and a training plan rebuilt around getting her to the start line — healthy.
She crossed the finish line at 4:09:30. Smiling.
Fulfilled. Moved. Forever changed.
I've coached a lot of athletes. Sharon is one of the most remarkable humans I know — not because of what she finishes, but because of how she shows up. For her family, her friends, her community. And for herself.
London 2026 was yours, Sharon. Every step.
We're going to share more of these. Because this is what it's all for.
