2019 has been a great year of racing for me, and Matt has played a huge part in what I have achieved. The structured training and self-inflicted mental pressure, knowing that someone tracks your weekly progress, seems to work for me. Of course, anyone could download an Ironman programme and complete the race, but probably won’t reach their full potential and/or get injured in the process. Having that sounding board to discuss what and what not to do during training and race day, as well as getting to know some of the incredible TCUK athletes and their stories during training camps, has been invaluable to me.
