"Healthy habits
to ignite your Potential"

My Story

Hello, I’m Marine Lenehan, a passionate endurance athlete and the founder of Vivify Sports, based in beautiful Wicklow, Ireland. I work with athletes around the world through online sports nutrition coaching, helping them fuel better, recover smarter, and thrive in both performance and life. My approach is rooted in two lifelong passions: cycling and nutrition.

 Athlete & Coach 

As a longtime athlete, formerly a hurdler and now a professional cyclist, I understand firsthand what it takes to support both the body and the mind through training, racing, and recovery.

In 2025, I signed with LIDL-TREK, marking the moment I officially stepped into the WorldTour as a professional rider. Competing at the highest level has strengthened both my experience and my philosophy as a nutritionist because the strategies I use to fuel myself for the WorldTour racing are the same evidence-based tools I bring to the athletes I support.

I’m still proud to hold titles as:

  • Amateur Gravel World Champion (2024)

  • Amateur Gravel European Champion (2023,2024) 

  • Irish National E-Sport Champion (2024, 2025)

  • Irish National Criterium Champion (2024)

  • European Gran Fondo Champion (2023)

  • Podium Elite Irish Road Nationals (2025) 

 

But more than medals, what drives me is helping others discover their own version of success through personalised coaching that balances both science and individuality.

 

 Education & Tools

 I’ve spent years building a well-rounded foundation to support the athletes I coach. My qualifications include: 

  • Master’s Degree in Sports Nutrition (2025)

  • Professional Diploma in Sports Nutrition (2023)

  • BTS Dietetics (2019)

  • Master’s Degree in Massage Therapy (2021)

  • Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Wellness (2020)

  • 200-hour Yoga Alliance Teaching Certificate (2021)

 

These tools enable me to support the entire athlete, not just their diet, but also their movement, mindset, and recovery. 

 

 Elite-Level Nutrition, Real-World Coaching 

As both a WorldTour professional cyclist and a sports nutritionist, I live the realities of high-performance fueling every day.This gives my clients a unique advantage: you're not just learning theory—you're learning what truly works at the highest level of sport.

I translate complex nutrition science into simple, practical steps to help you:

  • Set clear, achievable nutrition goals 

  • Fuel your training effectively 

  • Build sustainable habits 

  • Manage stress and recovery 

  • Reconnect with your body’s natural cues 

  • Optimise your body composition

  • feel confident and energised in daily life 

This is performance nutrition grounded in experience—shaped both in the lab and on the road. ​

 My Coaching Philosophy 

The advice for living a healthy, high-performing life is simple: eat well, train consistently, and rest deeply. But if you’ve ever tried to juggle performance goals with real life, you know it’s not always that easy. That’s where I come in, as a supportive coach who helps you balance ambition with sustainability. 

“YOU ARE UNIQUE, SIMPLY AND WONDERFULLY YOU.”

 

Your uniqueness is your power. I believe in working with, not against, your body. Together, we’ll uncover what energizes you, makes you feel strong, and keeps you in sync with your goals.

 Let’s Work Together 
Whether you're chasing a podium or aiming to tackle your next endurance challenge, I'll help you fuel, recover, and perform at your best sustainably and effectively for all cycling disciplines, running, triathlon, e-sports & virtual racing, swimming, and rowing—but I work with athletes of all levels and disciplines. 


Let’s build something sustainable, empowering, and truly yours.
