Ironman Austria 2011

In July this year, I completed my first ever triathlon, and yes - it was a full Ironman. With the help of my rowing coach, Andrew Medcalf, I transferred my rowing fitness to triathlon readiness. Off I went in the van with my bike and equipment, and drove down to the beautiful county of Karnten in Austria for the event, at which I was very pleased to exceed my target time.

I can help you get through your first ever triathlon, whether you want to try a new sport, or improve your current time, in an olympic distance, a half Ironman, or a full Ironman. I know what it takes to get to the event, injury free and in good shape - I can get you both psychologically and physically prepared.

I'm hoping to do my next Ironman in 2013. We're very fortunate to have everything we need to train for an Ironman on our doorstep - cycling around the Surrey hills or up to Box Hill, running in Richmond Park or Bushy Park, and plenty of swimming pools and open water swimming. Whatever your goal, I can improve your technique and make your training more rewarding for you. Feel free to contact me through the website if you have any questions.
