My Race History

I have been in this sport for over ten years and have completed more than 50 Triathlons. I started in Saudi Arabia in 2003, where races were in 25 meter pools, with bike and run courses on housing compounds. I did my first event as an Aquathlon and remember taking a towel to wrap around my waist so I could swap my swimming trunks for my running kit. It wasn’t pretty.

This year I am looking forward to representing Team GB at the Age Group European Middle Distance championships in Denmark in June, and then going to Chattanooga in Tennessee, USA in September for the World Ironman 70.3 championships. I am obviously pleased with those achievements and they are the result of being helped along the way by many coaches.
