Morning everyone I hope you are enjoying this extended summer we are having here in the UK!  I’m pretty chuffed, apart from our holiday we usually miss out on weather like this as by the time it’s time to take a break Autumn is well and truly under way.
I’m having a great break so far. [...]

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

So, it’s been quite a week!

I’m starting to feel a bit rock and roll recently after my new found skills in Hamburg!  I’ve picked up my new BMW 5 Series GT from ELMS Cambridge.  The locals call us the mainies now because we’ve been spending our evenings driving up and down the main street in [...]

Mr. Clarke was second overall in Hamburg.
We kindly ask he runs faster than 29min 47sec next time
BRAVO!
Full results here.

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.  I just got back to Loughborough after a longer then necessary days travel!  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.

Rainer & Sabine [...]

Lots of racing this weekend.  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!  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.  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 [...]

I’ve been here for 9 weeks now and still loving Australia.  We’ve had an awesome month of weather, just a few overcast rainy days and other than that…too hot if anything! My tank top collection has grown to 6 since my 26th birthday! You won’t catch me wearing anything else now!
The squad is battling through [...]

Meet the team!
As you know Will is out here training with Team Dillon which includes Stu Hayes, Jodie Stimpson, Chris, Kathy Tremblay and coach Michelle Dillon. I took this shot at the pool today before they started, and trust me – they looked a lot different when they finished!!
They are all doing a fantastic [...]

Just polished off another great week with the squad.
Kathy Tremblay has just arrived from Canada, she’s another Olympian and a great addition to the squad. She’s going to improve fast  We welcomed her into our squad with a posh dinner last night at Glass Restaurant where Clare works.
Today we took our rest day. I [...]

Now the Xmas ‘break’ is out the way, training has well and truly resumed and we are settled into the rhythm here in Australia pumping out huge weeks…living and breathing triathlon. I must be training hard because I’m forced to take extra sleep during the day just to get through the week + I am [...]

I had a great 2 weeks on honeymoon…actually some of it was a bit of a nightmare but most of it was great and I got on the plane very impressed with my visit to Queensland.

Our only commitment was the Campervan that we rented from Brisbane and also our flight out of Cairns which left [...]

I’m afraid there was no magic again for me in Kitzbuhel this weekend, it’s not been the best season, just a handful of races to be really proud of…I’ll get my excuses out now!
To be honest I’ve just been digging myself into a deeper hole as each race goes on and now I am more [...]
