About Coach Jason Spears

I’ve been drawn to endurance sports and the competitive drive my entire life, but my real passion is helping other athletes unlock their true potential. After graduating with a degree in Health Promotions from the University of Iowa, I spent over two decades in multi-unit business management and consulting—a background that taught me exactly how to master the art of data-driven coaching, strategic planning, and performance management.

When I stepped into the world of multi-sport racing, I realized that true success isn't just about training hard—it's about training smart. As a USA Triathlon (USAT) Level I Certified Coach, I’ve personally crossed the finish lines of multiple grueling Ironman triathlons, technical mountain ultra-endurance events, and legendary challenges like the Grand Canyon Rim-to-Rim hike. I know exactly what it takes to push the human body to its limits—and more importantly, how to recover properly.

Today, I founded Spears Racing Team to provide premium, 1-on-1 triathlon coaching in Frisco, Carrollton, and the North Dallas area. I don't believe in generic, cookie-cutter training templates. Because I balance my own coaching business with a corporate career and family life, I specialize in building custom, high-efficiency training programs for busy DFW professionals.

My coaching philosophy is simple: I use the latest endurance technology and metric tracking to keep you injury-free, highly motivated, and structurally balanced. Whether you are a beginner preparing for your very first sprint tri or Half Ironman at Lewisville Lake, or an experienced long-distance athlete looking to shatter your PR at Ironman Texas, I am dedicated to getting you to the start line healthy and the finish line fast.

Let’s build your next chapter together. – Jason Spears, Head Coach
