Coach Bio

I am a professional long course triathlete from New Zealand. My triathlon journey started back in 2020 where I signed up for my 1st Ironman, Ironman New Zealand 2021 edition. I have raced professionally for the past 2 seasons.

I have a desire to shed some insight into how a professional triathlete trains throughout the course of the year. I will be sharing my exact training blocks and sessions and the intensities I complete them at in preparation for races.

Have a go and see how you get on :)

Philosophy

  • Consistency over time is the foundation
  • A large volume (individual specific) of genuinely easy aerobic work over many months and years is the corner stone of high-performance fitness.
  • Strength and the ability to produce force is critical for success in long distance triathlon.
  • Intensity needs to be limited to the period about 6-8 weeks prior to an event.

Certifications

  • No coaching certifications. I am self-coached and have been since the very beginning of my triathlon journey. I constantly study, research and draw inspiration from the best coaches in the triathlon field as well as high performance sports outside of triathlon and endurance sports.
  • Triathlon coaches who I draw insights from: Dan Lorang, Dan Plews, Brett Sutton, Olav Alexander Bu
  • High-performance sports I draw insights from: Rugby, American Football, Weightlifting, Swimming, Cycling and Running.
  • Individuals I draw insights from: Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Tom Brady, Richie McCaw, Jan Frodeno, Katie Ledecky, Eluid Kipchoge, Kat Matthews, Ray Lewis, Steve Magness, Arthur Lydiard.

Coaching Experience

  • Currently Coaching: 2 of NZ top speed golfers for Worlds, 2 Age Group long distance triathletes.
  • Previously Coached: An Ultra runner to completing 100 miler at Tarawera, Rotorua.
  • Several individuals to their 1st half and full marathons.
