Kevin Collington hails from Orlando, Florida, where he started swimming on his local competitive swim team at the age of four. While attending the University of Florida, Kevin joined the triathlon team and found his true talent was in combining swimming, cycling and running, winning the USA Collegiate Triathlon National Championship in 2007. From there he started racing triathlon professionally, with a career spanning 18 years (so far) with a dozen race wins to his name. With the aim to pass on what he has learned in sport, Kevin started coaching at the San Francisco-based triathlon coaching company Purplepatch Fitness in 2017. He now coaches triathletes of all skill levels through his own company, Kevin Collington Racing. He brings a lifetime of swim experience with a speciality in open water swimming to your masters swim here at the Louisville Recreation and Senior Center.
