I am back home now after a tough past month of training and racing, but my season is now finished now and I’m really excited to relax and recover after my best ever year.
Since my last blog it all started to slip through my fingers a bit! Â I picked up a bit of a niggles [...]

Just got home from London. Â What a fantastic weekend.
14th wasn’t the result I was hoping for but I’m happy with my effort. Â I was 3rd best Brit which I’m happier with as it hopefully looks favourably towards me with the Olympic selectors. Â To be honest the race didn’t suit me yesterday, It’s not how I’ve [...]

Hello everyone. I’m currently sitting on the EZ 145 flight from Munich to London Stansted, I was on the exact same flight two weeks ago returning from Kitzbuhel excitedly writing my blog after one of my best ever races. Here I am again sitting in same inhumane position they like to put us in writing [...]

Hello everyone. Â I just got back to Loughborough after a longer then necessary days travel! Â Phew I’m tired and my legs are way sore! Let’s not waste any time though, every day counts and it’s back to the grind but this time with heaps of motivation after a wicked weekend in Kitzbuhel!
What a difference to [...]

I had a lot of fun this weekend in Madrid. It was good to be back on tour with the GB gang and I spent some good time with the team and also some good friends from other countries!
It’s the 6th time I’ve been to Madrid. Same course, (It’s still bloody difficult) the same Italian [...]

This weekend was the first round of the Bundesliga in Paderborn Germany. I decided last year that I’d like to compete in the Bundesliga after 6 years of competing in mostly the same races. I’m really pleased I did because I really enjoyed this weekend and it was awesome to experience new races.

Lots of racing this weekend. Â Well done to my training buddies who raced in Strathclyde, Joel Jameson in his really great Ironman debut (4th in Lanzarote) and everyone else who raced! Â What a weekend!
Dunkerque wen’t well I guess…actually very mixed feelings about it really.
I had to train right up to this one because I have [...]

Racing for Lagardere in the French Grand Prix is probably my favourite racing for the year. It’s always a pleasure to meet the gang who by now are really good friends. We always have a laugh and the other great thing is it’s usually just a 1hr flight away! In on Saturday back home on [...]

This weekend I competed in the opening round of the ITU Triathlon World Series in Sydney before I headed back home after 4.5months.
I had a really good winter this year and was waiting for a good result, I was a little bit frustrated with my first 2 races out here in Oz but came good [...]

The first one ITU race of the year in Mooloolaba is done and dusted.
I ended up 11th and a bit frustrated but optimistic about the big one in Sydney. To be honest I thought I’d go a bit better then that but unfortunately didn’t have great legs on the day for whatever reason.
The swim was [...]

Had an interesting weekend in Geelong for the race.
I decided to drop in about 5 days out from the race. Â I twisted my wrist while I was out running with Brad Kahlefeldt and Emma Moffatt. I thought that as my training is going to be disturbed I may as well turn it into a positive [...]

Notice how you didn’t get a race report straight after Paris…
It didn’t go to plan! Â A combination of getting screwed over by the race official and our rival teams and tiredness heading into the race from that 10day block! It hurts having a bad race….even if you can justify it. Â We were meant to take [...]

We had a fun weekend at the European Championships this weekend in Athlone.
Firstly well done to Alistair (getting boring saying it) and Lucy who won the Juniors. Also to everyone else who raced and didn’t get medals. Everyone put their best effort in and “you can only hold your heart rate at 180 for so [...]

That’s a big few races done and done. I’m pretty happy with my result in Des Moines today. I wanted to make up for a bad result in Madrid and thankfully I redeemed myself.
‘My team’ sent me the analysis from Madrid. I found it really useful and soon found out that the problem was I [...]

I’m on the flight from Madrid over to Des Moines after racing the World Champs Series.
It didn’t go great to be honest, It was far from the result I was expecting. I didn’t see the move and the race moved away before my very eyes! Quite frustrating really but major fault by me for not [...]

Had a good weekend in France. Great weather, great racing and great company with Team Lagardere Paris Racing.
Picked up heaps of cool kit as usual. I always feel very spoilt by the team, although the hotel always leaves something to be desired!
Race morning I was feeling good. Woke up at 6:15 with excitement. I trained [...]

Our flights to Ireland were cancelled like all the other thousands of flights around Europe! Â I feel for the people who are stranded abroad. Â It sounds like fun but I bet they are spending a fortune and getting really stressed out about not being able to get back to their normal lives now! Â Hope it [...]

Raced National Duathlon Champs as my first race of the season today.
Must say, it was bloody good to get racing and get away from the training phase if only for a short weekend.
It was a very windy and very exposed circuit, and a good field! Â There was Tim and I, I guess as the favourites. [...]

Very sorry for lack of blogging!
I am now on Holiday in Thailand with my Fiance and my friends. We are having an incredible time. The weather has actually been pretty shocking…but we did see the sun today:) For the first few days we were still on the beach though because we are Brits and however [...]
