It is posts like this that make me proud to be a longtime client of pstriathlon.com.
Sincerely,
John
Respectfully, Paulo, I'm not sure I understand your comment here. If I'm "a customer or receiver of services" that include the service of coaching from my coach, how am I not a client?
Also, unless I'm missing your point, it seems that implying that one is *either* a client or an athlete is a false dichotomy--why can't I be an athlete *and* a client?
McCrory,
His commentary is on the attitude of "coaches", not the semantics of what the person paying for services considers himeslf.
This remark tells all "whores...have clients."
But maybe I'm way off base....
And Nathan wins a t-shirt with pstriathlon's new slogan:
"pstriathlon.com - The Leaders in Custom Coaching"
Thanks for playing, Nathan!
bahahaha... beautiful.
You can keep the shirt. I'd rather you take me on as an athlete.
THANK YOU! It's about time someone said it!
Don't pretend that if the right athlete came along they couldn't also be a client. :)

I believe that I was PS' first North American client, and am quite certain that I was his first Canuck.
I've never been so proud...
