Erin Wesley Hartwell (born June 10, 1969 in Philadelphia ) is a former American cyclist and current cycling coach.

Athletic career

In 1991 Erin Hartwell finished second in the 1000-meter time trial at the Pan American Games in Havana . In 1994 he was runner-up in the amateur world championship in the same discipline. In 1995, at the World Track Championships in Bogotá , he was third in the time trial and in the team sprint (with Marty Nothstein and William Clay ). He competed three times - in 1992 , 1996 and 2000 at the Olympic Games - and won bronze in Barcelona in 1992 and silver in Atlanta in 1996 , both in the time trial, where he set an Olympic record (1: 02,940 min.) At the race in Atlanta, which was short then the eventual winner, Florian Rousseau , was again undercut (1: 02.712 min.).

In 1999 Hartwell won the silver medal in the time trial at the Pan American Games in Winnipeg . In 2000 he became the American team pursuit champion (with Mariano Friedick , Derek Bouchard-Hall and Tommy Mulkey ). Then he went over to the professionals and also drove road races, but without significant success. In 2000 he won the Joe Martin Stage Race .

Professional

Since his retirement from active cycling at the end of 2001, Erin Hartwell has been working as a cycling trainer. From 2002 to around 2012 , he ran his own training school in Trexlertown , where there is also a cycling track , together with his then wife May Britt Hartnell , a cyclist who had previously started for Norway . From 2005 to 2008 he headed the Valley Preferred Cycling Center , also in Trexlertown. From 2014 to 2017 he was the national sprint coach in Canada until he moved to Trinidad and Tobago , where he had already worked from 2010 to 2011. Under his supervision, the country's sprinters have won numerous medals: Njisane Phillip , Nicholas Paul , Kwesi Browne and Keron Bramble became Panama champions in team sprints in 2018 and 2019 and won gold at the 2019 Pan American Games . Nicholas Paul also set a new world record over 200 meters.

In December 2019, the team from Trinidad and Tobago was deprived of the gold medal in the team sprint and Njisane Phillip the silver medal in the sprint of the 2019 Pan American Games because Philipp had tested positive for doping . Because of this decision, the chances fell for the team, the Olympic Games in Tokyo to qualify. Thereupon Browne and Phillip denied no further competitions. Hartwell then left the association and moved to China .
