I recently competed in IRONMAN Weymouth, the inaugural event for the brand at both full and half distances. My entry was under the public radar as I only entered a week before! Not the norm but I like to constantly challenge my body & mind in extreme & unpredictable ways! This was the time & place to do it!

With experimental training methods under the belt I was happy to produce a pleasing time of 11hours: 18min, and 7th overall. A hard graft putting the body on the line until it becomes mind over matter, that’s the soul-searching element of racing I love. I’m back with a vengeance!

The season began with a couple of pleasing results and times, winning both San Dom 20 miles and Worcester Marathon. Then most recently reaching 4th at Cotswold 113 Middle Distance, this was an uncertain event in terms of being able to complete let alone compete in it, so to reach the top 5 was a bonus.

All preparation is now focussed on the European Long Distance Championships [3.8km lake swim, 180km bike, 42.2km run] at Poznan, Poland end of July. Promising to be an exciting venture to test the body and mind in new surroundings!

Following this….I’m open to suggestions on event choices

Thank you to race director Brian & Richard Campbell and the team at the ‘Castle Triathlon Series’ for organising the Bastion Triathlon. A stunning location, if not the most difficult long course race to date!! The Bastion involves a 3.8km lake swim around Hever Castle, followed by a 180km hilly and challenging bike route through the Kent roads, to finish with a 42km run on the rolling cross country hills of Hever Castle and the surrounding area. If you want the push the boundaries, this is the race! ‪#‎Bastiontri15‬

So happy with winning this, proving the training is coming together. Thank you to sponsors Arena, Greeper Laces, Clif Bar, Tredz. Also to my support team on the day!
