You don’t achieve your dreams by sitting back and watching the world go by, you get out there and make it happen, which is why my training is completely driven by achieving my goals. In the gym, on the road, in the pool or in the kitchen I have a strict regime aimed at constant improvement.
Racing among the world’s best is not easy. It takes dedication, sacrifice, focus, ability and self belief but it also takes finance.

Where it all began…
After starting university I joined the rowing club where I rowed with the university 1st VIII for 3 years along with competing for Molesey, an international London based club. However the 4:50am alarm to fit in with the squad and a full time job wasn’t a life style I could consistently maintain.
So at the young age of 20 I was talked into taking on a new challenge by a few of my best friends. A challenge that would go on to change my life. It was decided that within a year a team of 5 of us would compete in the Nice and Wales ironmans, in turn raising £5,000 for charity. I reluctantly signed up from the challenge, breaking away from rowing to fit in with a full time job.
With the running total ending at £5,482.19 excluding gift aid, some of the closest friends anyone could ask for and an addiction to a fast growing sport, you could say we were successful. And all official Ironmen.
Since then I have won European and World championship medals, and never looked back.
