Pure Awesome Athletes

"I trained with Ashlee for about a year before my scheduled ascent of Denali (Mt. Mckinley)
the tallest peak in the United States. Ashlee is one of the most vibrant and inspirational young
women I have had the pleasure to know. I have the highest respect for Ashlee as a person
and she has been one of the most highly influential persons to me in my lifetime. She has
demonstrated integrity and courage, not to mention incredible determination, throughout life’s
challenges. I praise her as both a person and athlete. Her knowledge and skills as an athlete
and trainer are without comparison and her motivational strategies, including doing most of
the workouts alongside me, were major reasons why the two Navy Seals and the three team
members who had just come from summiting Mt. Everest had little on me throughout the Denali
climb. This was so even though I was 66 at the time. Ashlee never expected more of me than
she expects for herself. Her courageously high expectations for herself seem to be the the
reason for her personal success and a formula for her helping others towards facing their
challenges and accomplishing their dreams."

"It is so nice to have someone who never lets me give up and who believes in me. She is sweet on the outside and a force of nature on the inside, pushing me to my goals. I love it and hate it at the same time."

"I first got exposed to Ashlee by going to Pure Awesomeness on Wednesday nights. As a 'retired' college athlete, when Ashlee approached me to go to the class, I thought, "Sure, why not." Afterwards, all I can say is "WOW!" Week after week, she pushed my body to the limit, while fostering a spirited environment built on excellence and friendly competition. Later when we began training one on one, she continued to help me excel, whether on the bike, in the water, or on the run. Ashlee is so dedicated, and even though I can't train with her right now, she checks in with me. I'm confident that Ashlee can train anyone, whatever your goals are or your experience level may be, as long as you're open and ready to do the work! Since working with Ashlee, I've completed three triathlons, and placed in two of those. It's been a pleasure to know such a talented and committed young adult."
