John Haley
SANITAS SPORTS - RACE DIRECTOR
Growing up in the California I was exposed at an early age to exploring the mountains and deserts. I often found myself lost on purpose. I spent a lot time on two wheels, pedaling around wherever I could, always seeking new places to see. As I got older, I decided to enlist in the Army where I quickly became a fan of the orienteering and route planning aspects of the military. Eventually I deployed to Iraq and spent a good amount of time lost in the desert without reliable GPS. Wayfinding became essential to success.
As I began riding more and racing bicycles, planning routes and trips were my favorite. I began to direct and design courses for Cyclocross while also race directing.

Fitness-my style and philosophy is all about a holistic approach and taking all related aspect’s of fitness and health into consideration when working with a new client. I really try to hack the burden of workouts and simply make it fun. It’s a cautious approach with a safety first plan but before you know it you are achieving some stated goals.
Cycling technique coach-I’m not a calendar mesocycle type of coach, I’m not concerned with numbers, I don’t prescribe intervals or power numbers. In fact, I’m a perfect compliment to a coach like that. My clients hire me to teach sprinting, cornering, hill climbing and one of cycling most important yet basic functions, how to ride in a paceline with others. I’m also a tactics coach for middle and upper level bike racing amateurs for road racing and criteriums.
