This training block couldn’t have gone better. I managed to back up hard session after hard session and now I feel ready to smoke it at the Worlds. Â My swimming and running are going especially well which is [...]

The swim was really fast this week, probably the fastest I have ever seen it. Â It split up so quickly at the front I couldn’t believe it! Hence a good group of fast swimmers got away with [...]

It’s been a good week really. Â Been a bit tired at times, but London didn’t massively bite me in the ass like it should have and races normally do!

The swims are getting faster, we knew that anyway…that was before these two rocked onto the scene! Can they really change things?
This is Marco Rivera. He raced us in the FGP in Dunkerque and a few other races where he was 30 secs off the front of 2nd place. Guess what, I was watching the [...]

It’s funny! I’m always quick to write something when it’s going well! When it’s not necessarily going well…nothing! Same with a lot of people I think!
London went great at the weekend, I competed at the end of a difficult period for me, motivation wise I felt a bit low, I worked hard in Wales but [...]
