Triathlon is my passion which, in the past, coexisted with my day job as a management consultant - so I absolutely understand the challenges of fitting triathlon into a busy work, family and social life. I started competing in endurance sports in my teens as a rower, ultimately competing for Great Britain at the World Championships, and have continued as an endurance athlete throughout my life. My first triathlon was an Olympic distance event in Japan in 2001, which sparked my interest in the complexities and and rewards of multi-sport and long distance racing. I continued to compete after moving to the U.S., and since then I have competed in many triathlon and running events, including 14 full distance 140.6 and as many 70.3 races, including three times Kona World Championships and two times 70.3 World Championships. I am a certified IMU and USAT L1 coach.
