The Beginning
I have been doing triathlon for 10 years. I have always been into sport and I have always had a real passion for fitness and nutrition. I have played Footy, Cricket and golf at high levels, and participated in many other sports, but I guess they weren’t for me.
My stepping stone into triathlon was the gym. I used to spend countless hours there doing Spinnerval classes and running on the treadmill. That ignited my passion to compete in triathlon. I had never done any real swimming before or had lessons but I took on the challenge and am slowly catching up to the elite field of swimmers.
Where I Want To Go
After having a few successful years as a long course age group athlete I have decided to take on the challenges of racing at a professional level. I know it will be a very tough transition but I believe with some race experience and the support from the team of sponsors I have been working with that I have the ability to become an Ironman Champion.
Come join me in my journey as I follow my dream and make the step up from age grouper to professional triathlete.

Challenge Shepparton 2021
8th today for me at @challengeshepp . First thought looking at the swim course was “that looks LONG” and I think it was. Probably the worst thing that could happen to me as it makes the gap to bridge on the bike larger. I started ok in the swim before losing the feel...
Ironman 70.3 Geelong 2021
5th place at today’s Ironman 70.3 Geelong. Although I was never in the race due to a slow swim I feel it’s an improvement and step in the right direction. I am hungry to put myself in the mix or at least in striking distance early on in the race. But I am always proud...
