At 6'6" tall, I'm not built for running and until 2019 I could not swim front crawl. To be honest, I'm not a quick cyclist either so triathlon seemed a perfect sport for me. Having learnt the basics of front crawl, I took part in my first triathlon in the Oxfordshire Triathlon Series in September 2019 and thoroughly enjoyed it. Since then and with the help of the coaches and other members of WTC I have completed sprint and olympic distance triathlons and in June 2022 did my first Ironman 70.3

I'm not quick by any stretch of the imagination, but for me it's about the challenge, making friends and having fun at the same time and WTC is perfect for that.
