About Russell
I have over five years’ experience training and racing as an endurance athlete, including racing for the GB Age Group team in Triathlon. My proudest achievements to date are finishing third in my age group at Ironman UK 2009 and breaking 10 hours at the Ironman World Championship in Hawaii. I’ve raced 9 Ironman races and many other events including Challenge Roth and the Ironman 70.3 World Championships.
I haven’t always been a dedicated athlete. In my early twenties, with no sporting background, I decided to get fit. Some work at the gym and a healthy diet soon showed results. With a little encouragement from a friend I entered my first running race and now training and racing has taken over my life!
I work with all levels of experience, from absolute beginners through to full-time athletes. I am well aware of the difficulties just getting to your first start line: I may train full-time now but for many years I combined a job, a commute and a social life with training. I understand how difficult it can be and can build you a program to get the best results in the time you have available.
Working with you I will establish goals for the season and perhaps even beyond. Then based on feedback on current training, available time and equipment I will develop a personalised monthly training program to get you to your goals. I’ll always be available for consultation and feedback via email and will adjust the program to best fit your lifestyle and goals.
I’m keen to help others benefit from my experience and to develop as athletes. Whether or not you enter races, I believe that an active lifestyle has many benefits, and look forward to working with other people towards their fitness goals.
