About Us
We're Vanessa and Billy Phipps — a husband-and-wife coaching team based in Bentonville, AR, and we race everything we teach. Vanessa is a 2x Full Ironman and 4x Half Ironman finisher who coaches beginner women triathletes from their very first sprint to the full distance finish line. Billy is a Certified Nutrition Coach who has coached 7 athletes to World Championships and specializes in helping endurance athletes fuel smarter — on race day and every training day in between. We built Phipps Endurance Co. because we know firsthand what it takes to cross a finish line, and we believe every woman who shows up at that start line deserves a coach who's been there too. Whether you're chasing your first tri or a new PR, we're in your corner.
