I’m a high-performance triathlon and endurance coach with 20+ years of experience supporting athletes from beginner to international level. My philosophy is based around the five elements that I believe are the most important in training for triathlon. Placing the appropriate balance on the appropriate elements of physiology, psychology, movement and strength, tactics and lifestyle, at the appropriate time results in athletes achieving everything they thought possible and often more.
Previous, work with British Triathlon as Head Coach of the South West Regional Academy and Lead Talent Development Coach for Para-Triathlon, allowed my to help athletes progress to international level, including World Championship and Paralympic success. My current work in Germany, involves athlete development programmes, mentoring coaches, and supporting junior athletes. Commercially I have coached athletes to all triathlon distances, endurance events, and performance levels.
I have an MSc in Applied Sport & Exercise Psychology, an MSc in Exercise Physiology, and a BSc (Hons) in Physiology. I hold British Triathlon Level 3 and German Triathlon Union (DTU) A-Level coaching qualifications, alongside certifications in strength and conditioning, nutrition coaching, and Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy (REBT).
My coaching combines evidence-based training, performance analysis, mindset development, and athlete education to help individuals maximise both performance and enjoyment in sport.
