Athlete Spotlight: Declan Irvine - pro cyclist with Team Novonordisk

from The Compeat Waffle · host Compeat Performance

🚴‍♂️ DECLAN IRVINE 🚴‍♂️ It is time to put the spotlight on one of our athletes that has been with us before we even launched. Dec is an individual that has shown that a diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes doesn’t need to mean the end of sporting dreams. @declanirvine, at just 19, announced his launch into the pro racing team for @teamnovonordisk as a stagiaire. Dec is the definition of commitment and professionalism in an athlete. He works damn hard, asks questions and takes responsibility in every component of performance. Since starting to work with Dec we have watched him become a Masterchef and whiz in nutrition Knowledge. As an athlete with Type 1 diabetes, there are some unique challenges, which meant we have both learned a lot! A big couple of months ahead of racing for this guy and we cannot wait to be a part of his support team. Damn proud Dec - all this has (and will continue) to pay off 🥇
