People often ask why I spend so much time training.

The truth is… Ironman isn’t the reason.

Giving up booze gave me the chance to change my life.

Endurance sport gave me purpose, discipline and a new outlook.

I’m still learning.

I’m still making mistakes.

But every day I’m trying to become a better husband, dad, coach and person.

Better Every Day. 💪

What’s one habit that’s changed your life?

IM LANZAROTE TRILOGY ✅

I came into this race confident, fit and healthy as I always am. But the day had other plans…

“No fitness numbers or training session will always get you a PB in IRONMAN…the race will always decide”

Swim - was good and swam a PB, thought I was on for a gooden, felt tasty and thought yeah fuck it here we go.

Bike - got on bike and legs blew up straight away and the games started, couldn’t push the power that I know I’m capable off and the punch ups began.

Run - the whole world crashed in on me from 4k and then all I wanted to do was walk off the course and go straight to mc Donald’s. My aunt plodded with me for 4k got me to Anthony and a few words from him and the job had to get finished. Walked, talked and ran with a lot of Hero’s on that course.

Finish time 12 hours 15

I can hold my head high With this 8th Ironman, yeah the PBs are good, but fuck me the stuff you learn in times of darkness are priceless.

I love my coach I love the people around me, I love the support people have showed me.

If this has helped someone to inspire them to finish a race then that’s my job done.

“God will use pressure to push purpose into places comfort would never go. As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend”

We go on

All the good stuff started in 2019 and all the old stuff got jogged on in 2019.

We all have the ability to change and try new stuff.

Here’s to everyone battling stuff and making a change, here’s to everyone trying new stuff.

If your struggling reach out, if your not struggling reach out and help someone who is.

If your struggling with certain things in your life then reach out and ask for help and if your not struggling then pick the phone and help someone else.

Life’s precious.

There is a solution.

Funny old life init.

Didn’t really like who I was and was on the verge of checking out 7 years ago.

Made some changes, asked for some help and fast forward 7 years, here I am today standing on a stage shitting myself talking to 200 students about consistent average work rate.

Life’s a funny game ain’t it.

In my experience the main thing is, as long as we continue to help the next man or woman, and when it’s shit for yourself, ask for more help, then things seem to pan out alright.

Grateful for this life and the opportunities that I get to learn a little more about myself and others.
