Triathlon Coaching
I was a total marathon newbie, but Coach George turned me into a finisher! His personalized plan, constant encouragement, and knowledge about endurance sports (running, fitness, diet, etc…) were invaluable. Highly recommend!

Half way through the ITR Kickstarter programme. It is fab! Weekly running plans, weekly coach check-ins, an accountability group to keep motivated. Never have I run as far or for as long. Would definitely recommend 👍🏻 More...

Currently on Week 5 of the ITR speed me up programme and it’s been a brilliant platform for finding my love of running again. Weekly run plans, insightful nuggets of info and calls/what’sap group with fellow runners has been great - Seeing the progress in the group and celebrating wins together on our journey is real highlight for me. Cheers again George More...

What do you love most about your job?
Seeing my clients experience the “light bulb” moment with their training. I love nothing more than when I get the call from a client telling me that “they get it” or that they’ve signed up for another race/event that’s even bigger than the last one.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I’d been doing sales and management roles for over 17yrs but the passion had fizzled out after a few restructures and redundancies, and I had ended up in a role that was neither challenging or fulfilling.
I had previously been involved in range of coaching or training roles and absolutely loved them, so decided to combine my coaching experience with my love for running and triathlon, and started with the occasional client during evening and weekends in 2020.
During the depths of the lockdown in 2021, I was unable to work my day job properly and so made the leap to make the run/Tri coaching a full-time gig - and I’m LOVING it!!
Why should our clients choose you?
I have 10+ years of competing in and completing a range of endurance events and challenges including and not limited to; 24hr cycle race, multiple marathons, ultra marathon and Ironman Triathlons, LEJOG + 3-Peaks, Mizen-to-Malin cycle.
Whilst never a PRO athlete, I have a wealth of knowledge and experience, in particular of how to balance a demanding training regimen with a full-time job, a young family and an active social life - something a pro or former pro athlete may not have had to deal with.
I’m personable, realistic and understand that life throws stuff at us from all angles. Don’t take my word for it, check out my reviews!
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
All training plans are delivered remotely. Depending on which coaching package you sign up for, training plans will be sent weekly/monthly either via TrainingPeaks or email.
All ITR TROOP/TRIBE/KICKSTARTER programs give you access to the ITR Accountability Group. This is a way of connecting all of our athletes together which helps accountability with training, as well as offering encouragement, support and a sense of being part of a mini-community. We have a group WhatsApp group and a weekly Zoom call.
Running technique reprogramming is done in person, as it would be meaningless to attempt these session remotely.
