Background:
I started in triathlon (Ironman) about ten years ago as a way to get fit to join the army. I wanted to be a professional athlete but after leaving the army found that I was a much better runner and realised I might have a shot at ultra running. I used the money I'd saved to move to Spain three years ago, to start training full time. In my second year of full time training I was 3rd at Trans Gran Canaria advanced, 11th in the long course at World Championships, and 16th at UTMB, and got my first UTMB series title at TransLantau 100M. This year I signed with the Kailas Fuga global team, and am looking to break into the top 10 at UTMB!
