Episode Description
Simon started running at school and joined his local club (Tamworth AC) at the age of 12 and went on to run for one of the top clubs in the country Birchfield Harriers when he was 25 for a few years until he did a triathlon with work in 2007 and then from that entering some local duathlons. Simon has done a few Ironman races too including Bolton, Tenby, and Zurich.
Simon started to take duathlon more seriously in 2016 paying for his British Triathlon membership and doing his first qualification race at Clumber Park.
Simon had some good results with 12th and 14th at Worlds and a 10th at the Europeans.
At this time he was competing and training with Colitis, lifestyle changes since have seen a huge improvement and he hasntt had a flare-up for a few years now.
Turning 40
Simon became vegetarian and got a strength and conditioning coach and also started his Project 1660 to run a sub-16-minute 5k and a sub-60-minute 25-mile time trial to help with duathlons. he has since done Project 3455 (sub 34 min 10k and sub 55min 25-mile TT) and this year he is doing Project 1620 (sub 16min 5k and sub 20minute TT). The aim of these projects is to give him a focus outside of the duathlon to push himself, which has really helped him, as Simon spent a few years shying away from racing except for duathlon qualification races and championships. It's really brought him on the last few years.
