Come to Sports Basement in Sunnyvale and hear Gina Kehr speaking about her recent trip to the USOC Olympic Training Center and what she learned there about CRP and other things.

What is the College Recruitment Program (CRP)?
USA Triathlon started CRP to identity potential multi-sport athletes who might become Olympians. The emphasis is on finding runners with a swimming background and swimmers with a running background. 

Their first recruit was Katie (Hursey) Zaferes.  Their most famous is reigning Olympic Gold Medalist, Gwen Joregesen!

Who is Gina Kehr?
Since retiring in 2010 and starting Affinity Multisport, Gina also is the head coach of Stanford Triathlon Club. She also coaches with Stanford Masters Swimming. Gina holds her USA Triathlon Coaching Certification as well as her Youth and Junior Coaching Certification.
