Testimonials

“I’ve known Jake & his family for years. Six years ago, at the age of 64, while recovering from total knee replacement, I had the privilege of watching Jake compete & win the Fort DeSoto Tri Series in Florida, and I got the “tri-bug”. I got clearance from my surgeon, then approached Jake about setting up a program to prepare me for completing a triathlon. 

He quickly agreed and sent me a comprehensive training program. He became “Coach B” to me and was always available to help, guide, tweak, and answer my questions. His love of the sport became abundantly clear, as did his desire to help others achieve whatever goal they envisioned.

If you are looking for someone who is dedicated, passionate, and caring, Jake is the person I would highly recommend, regardless of your current fitness level.”

“I'm a 24-year-old professional triathlete and recent M.S. Journalism grad from Colorado State University. I lived with Jake Bamforth from the fall of 2021 through the summer of 2024, and during that time period, I went from a mediocre, age-group level triathlete who didn't understand the nuances of high-level endurance training...to a top-20 USA Triathlon Collegiate Club Nationals finisher, the Colorado Marathon Champion (2:24), and an eventual NCAA Division I walk-on (at Colorado State).

None of those impressive feats would have happened if I didn't meet Jake, climbing up Rist Canyon one chilly spring day in 2021 (he promptly pointed out that my tires were basically flat, which makes sense, because I didn't even know how often one 'should' pump tires up at that point). Without Jake's daily influence, advice, and friendship, I wouldn't have understood how important easy days are, when to push and when to pull, and, perhaps most importantly, would never have caught the bug for the world of endurance sports that I am so immersed in now!”
