Can you start by telling everyone how you got into triathlon?

Yeah, absolutely.

So I've been on a bit of a journey myself where I was extremely overweight.

So I was about five stone heavier than what I am now.

So I was classed as obese.

really unhealthy I did no sport at all got married feeling horrendous because I was just I was so unhappy in my body but I was I was almost trying to pretend that everything was fine you know oh no it's fine because I've got curves in all the right places but those curves were just getting bigger and bigger and I was getting more unhealthy And I just didn't move.

My lifestyle was I went to work, came home, sat down on the couch and I ate and that was it.

So what happened on the day?

Yeah, yeah.

Um, when I started, there wasn't any regulation around it at all.

I was in a little room, albeit it was clean, it was fine, but there wasn't as much structure, policies, procedures.

There was nobody to, like, fall back on if something was to go wrong, and I could see that changing.

And like I say, I'm, I'm always quite forward-planning.

I'm always thinking of what's coming next for me.

I'm always trying to take things to the next level.

Yeah
