COACHING...

"Milton Keynes National Duathlon Championships...

Owing to a somewhat traumatic time last year personally, this was my first big race for 18 months. Work still to do, but just about sneaked in to qualify for the worlds and finsih 17th in my age group. So pretty chuffed really.

Thank you Joe for your patience, understanding, advice and as always your expertise. Your support has been incredible."

"Thanks (again) for your help all season. I have achieved far more than I thought possible at the start.

The 2:15 time at London was the high point - I just didn't think I could get there this year. Above all thanks for your advice and encouragement to stick with it even when the tests and early season results were static.

After the early gains of my first season with you, I didn't think it would be possible to get another step-improvement in my second season. Thanks."
