Full time pro triathlete and coach since graduating from Loughborough University in 2000 with a degree is sport and exercise science coupled with mathematics! Passion for coaching began when coaching the University Triathlon swim squad and has been growing ever since.
Trained and raced as part of the GB world class potential squad from 2000 through 2004 before moving away from ITU style racing to focus on long course racing and follow dream of racing in Hawaii!!
Though some top 10 results in 70.3s performance was suffering with a training schedule of long ironman training. Through research in 2007-8 I discovered the hormone approach to training through Marksdailyapple.com website and through the ironguides triathlon secrets e-book. Through changing diet and some aspects of training performances started to pick up, at this point I contacted Ironguides and started working with coach Vinnie leading to instant improvements!! 2008 saw best performances over the longer distances with a 5th place at Austria 70.3 and 22nd at the World champs in Florida highlighting the year.
Learning the Ironguides approach to training over the last 6 months I am excited to be offering this successful method of coaching to my clients from this point forward!!
