Alexis Nova Waddel, B.S., Professional Triathlete
Alexis began her athletic career at the tender age of 5 while participating in 1 mile fun runs that preceded most 5k and 10k’s that her parents competed in. At age 7 she decided to complete her first 10k and at age 9 she raced her first triathlon. In high school she ran cross county and track and field, holding the honor of Captain for 3 years. Throughout middle and high school, Alexis competed in a few triathlons, mostly for fun. Alexis attended and graduated in 1998 from San Diego State University with a degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Health, Fitness & Nutrition. While there she was on the cross country team for 3 years and in her final season was awarded an athletic scholarship and was named Captain. She was also on the cycling team for two years. In 1996 Alexis renewed her love of triathlon by competing in 4 races. After competing as an amateur for 4 years she decided to turn pro in January 2001. Alexis has competed in over 80+ triathlons ranging in distances from Olympic, Half-Ironman and Ironman. Alexis is also a coach for Tri California training camps for events such as Wildflower, Alcatraz, Pacific Grove, and Treasure Island.

"My personal philosophy is based on enjoyment of all aspects of triathlon including training, racing, traveling and having fun. Engaging in a physical fitness routine can enhance the physical, mental, and spiritual well being of an athlete that lasts a lifetime. My goal as a coach is to help you attain the highest level of health, fitness or competitiveness that you desire while keeping you free from injury. I am a firm believer in incorporating mental visualization into the program to supplement the physical training.
