About me

I turned 40 and weighed in at 273lb (124kg), got myself fit, got addicted to fitness and decided on a major career change! I qualified as a personal trainer in 2017 and quickly found that I genuinely enjoy helping people get fitter, stronger and faster. In 2023 I discovered Hyrox, it instantly appealed and I changed my own training and booked a Men’s Doubles Open in my home town of Manchester for January 2024. The race ended with a time of 1:13:17, and in all honesty was a humbling experience, but I was hooked and knew instantly that Hyrox was my sport. My focus then switched to improving in all aspects of Hybrid training. My running has exceeded what I thought possible, I am fitter, faster and more athletic than ever. Now I want to help you do the same.
