Biography
I've been competing in triathlon since 2004, initially at the back of the field but that did not matter because I was hooked after my first race. I have competed as a GB Age Grouper since 2007 and gained numerous top 10 and top 15 results. 2 hip operations have left me on a prolonged road to recovery but I am back to earning that GB Tri suit.
I've been coaching in one guise or another for 30 years and I have a passion for helping people get started but I like the challenge of different athletes.
I currently coach beginner swimmers, IM athletes, club and GB athletes and they consistently tell me they are training less, feel less tired and are faster than when they tried to coach themselves.
I believe in a balanced plan and also that it is what you do to promote rest, recovery and repair in the day outside of training that makes the most difference to your performance, hence the 24/7 triathlete.
I'm with you through the journey.
