I am training for my first triathalon. The open water swim seems so intimidating. I wish I had a coach like this. Minus the cold water. Great article. I am training for my first triathalon.

Morgan Filler's skills, knowledge,experience and above all, appreciation of open water swimming offers valuable insight for everyone who trains with her. There are only one or two other open water swim coaches in the San Francisco Bay Area with her broad experience and she is the only one I would recommend for novice open water swimmers. Keep up the good work ladies. Lynn South End Rowing Club Member Kathleen good luck on your Tri you could not ask for a better coach than Morgan.

Loved the idea of "peppering" someone with questions. Plus the exclusion of competition with others only inner satisfaction and goals. Berts pictures are captivating - the titles are so good, too. "Hide and Seek" - " Slippery slope" - "All in the Bag" Love it. All this and Dressage too. Love to you both and see you in San Carlos another time. Patricia Dear Kathleen,

Great article. Loved the idea of “peppering” someone with questions. Plus the exclusion of competition with others only inner satisfaction and goals.
Berts pictures are captivating – the titles are so good, too. “Hide and Seek” – ” Slippery slope” – “All in the Bag” Love it.
All this and Dressage too.
Love to you both and see you in San Carlos another time.

Patricia

It's so great to see that Kathleen experienced the positive effects of being around Morgan doing what she loves. I can't imagine a better coach for anyone lucky enough to get her time one on one. Here's to your coaching career really taking off and more people sharing the benefits of open water swimming that you've always known. Go Morgan!
