If someone told me 1 year ago that I was going to be competing in the WORLD TRIATHLON CHAMPIONSHIPS I would have replied with some vulgar slang for go away. Now in exactly 20 days I will be standing (or swimming) on the start line of the biggest international AG event in the ITU calendar. Racing the best of the best for that top step, going deeper and harder than ever before, pushing our minds and bodies to absolute exhaustion for that medal, that moment, that memory.
To get to this point I have put in a solid training block of 10 weeks and having not raced for over 2 months; I am in the best form I have been in my whole life. This has included 2 mini training camps with Kiera tippett and my coach Perry Agass whom In using the Trisutto methods has helped my swimming improve significantly, increase my strength on the bike and you will have to wait till race day to see my running speed. But here's a few pictures in the meantime:

So, 90% of the hard work has been done. 'The more you sweat in practice the less you bleed in battle' - I have sweated one hell of a lot in training so fingers crossed that bodes well for Chicago. The big day is on the 17th September, wish me luck!!
I would not be able to do what I do without the many people who have helped and supported me along the way so a huge thank you is necessary for Pedal Potential, High wycombe cycling club and of course Perry Agass, my coach.
