Biography

Rich Strauss is co-founder and head coach of Endurance Nation. Rich began coaching Ironman athletes in 2001 as Crucible Fitness, coaching over 400 athletes one-on-one. He is a 9-time Ironman finisher, including Kona, and a 10:02 PR. In 2007, he partnered with Patrick McCrann to form Endurance Nation and together they pioneered their "team coaching" method -- leveraging their nearly 20 years of combined Ironman coaching experience to coach a team of athletes. The original squad of 80 athletes has since grown to over 600. Endurance Nation fields 25-40+ athletes at every US Ironman and similar numbers at many 70.3 events.
