Endurance United Welcomes Celeste Kiewel as Youth Head Coach
Endurance United is thrilled to announce Celeste Kiewel as Youth Head Coach. Celeste brings experience from an extensive Nordic coaching career, including high school and several positions with Endurance United adults. Celeste also has much experience with youth, thanks to her teaching career and is also a mother of four children. Her well-rounded coaching experience with high school swimming, Nordic, and distance track, and her Endurance United trail running group lends nicely to endurance sport athletic training. Her background in dance gives her a passion for mobility and teaching healthy functional movement. Celeste’s interest in developing training programs dates to her high school captain career when she started making programs for fellow teammates.
Former youth head coach, Callie Knapp, will be moving on to Michigan State Veterinary school in August.
We wish Callie and Celeste the best as they start these new endeavors.
“We are excited for Celeste to bring her talents to the 50+ Endurance United youth and carry on the energy of Callie Knapp. We are lucky to have a coach with her experience and enthusiasm. Our youth and fellow youth coaches will be in good hands.”
