Al ingeschreven voor 2 halve triatlons in 2006 en niet van plan om een mal figuur te slaan. Stiekem dromen van een age group podium uiteraard maar de opzet is vooral wat ritme opdoen in de wissels en wennen aan open water in competitie. 😬😬😬

Powered by mince pies. Fuelled by festive spirit.
Santa’s swapped the sleigh for a bike and he says you need this jumper before the big day.

Testing out my new headphones and they smashed this hill workout with me. Fresh gear, fresh mindset, big climbs, big progress. Every rep is a reminder that I am stronger than I think. Onwards.”

This might be my first event of 2026! 👀
The Oulton Park Spring Duathlon on 29th March 2026 looks like the perfect way to kick off the season at one of the UK’s best circuits. 🏁💪

I just smashed a good session 💪 But now it’s time for boring adulting 😩 Before that… THE BEARD IS COMING OFF 🧔✂️ It’s way too itchy! Gotta look sharp for the paparazzi tomorrow 😎📸 #BeardBeGone #TriLife #PostWorkoutVibes #Adulting #IronmanJourney #TransformationTime
4 weeks of sulking after my Ironman FAIL ends today. Time to stop hiding, lace up, and rebuild. Mojo isn’t lost—it’s waiting in the miles, the sweat, the grind. Back at it for my health, sanity, and legacy. 💪 #BackOnTrack #TriLife #FindYourMojo #NeverFinished #IronmanJourney #TriathleteMindset
Stacked a smooth day of training — Bike, Run, Bike. Still hunting for that lost mojo… but I’m showing up anyway. One session at a time.”

On paper, the final workout is done. Now it’s in the hands of the Triathlon Gods. I’ll keep stretching, visualising, and prepping—but the hard work is banked. Time to show up, suit up, and believe. #IronmanReady #TriLife #UnlikelyFinisher #ShowUpStrong #JustFinish #70Point3
I never had a nutrition strategy for my marathon or ultra—just hoped for the best. But this time, I’ve tested it, refined it, & it works. Now it’s time to trust the plan and execute on race day!

Still training and fine-tuning technique, but the focus now is recovery and rest. Taper time is all about finding that sweet spot between movement and maintenance! 🧘♂️⚖️ #IronmanTraining #TaperTime #RestIsTrainingToo #CouchToIronman #JustFinish #UnlikelyFinisher #TriLife
Trying to focus on the positives from today’s ride… even if I’m grasping at straws and one of them is bent. Progress isn’t always pretty—but it’s still progress! 🚴♂️💨 #IronmanTraining #KeepPushing #CouchToIronman #JustFinish #UnlikelyFinisher #TriLife #EveryRideCounts
Day 1 of Race Day Simulation: ✅ Some wins, some WTFs. Legs = cooked, ego = medium rare. I’ll be leaning heavily on good vibes, stubbornness, and a hefty dose of Race Day Magic™! 🧙♂️✨ #IronmanTraining #RaceDayReadyish #JustFinish #CouchToIronman #TriLife #UnlikelyFinisher
Asked ChatGPT if I could run sub-3 after the swim & bike. It said: Your past PBs & race history show it’s possible. Endurance isn’t the issue—pacing under fatigue is. With smart training, 2:59 is doable. Aim for 2:55–3:10.

OMG this is going to be so helpful for both training and race day! A ton of info about the Swansea Ironman hills all in one place. Such a great tool for prep and pacing.

My race day predictions:
🏃♂️ Sub-40 mins for the 5K
🚴♂️ Sub-2 hours for the bike
🏃♂️ Sub-90 mins for the 10K
Let’s see what the day brings. Time to trust the training and set some gains💪🔥

It’s only a sprint triathlon, but I’m already getting a feel for what a big event looks and feels like.
If Ironman is even bigger—and it will be—I’ll probably have a few panic attacks just at registration in July!

Started tracking on January 1st—here’s every Ironman workout I’ve done so far this year. One step closer to the big day!”

Longest open water swim EVER… and I barely beat the Ironman cut-off. FULL. BLOWN. PANIC.”

Been so busy training since the play ended. My tri is in two weeks, and I am hella tired. These past two days were demanding. It'll be weird having a rest day tomorrow. #trilife #swimbikerun #triathlete #olympictriathlon #rubleracingevents
“Really NOT good today—but the water was warm, so I’m committing to two early morning swims a week. Sighting? TERRIBLE. Breathing? SHITE. And I didn’t trust my front crawl at all. But hey, showing up is half the battle!”

Proud of my official times—proof that the hard work is paying off. It only gets tougher from here, with my first Ironman less than 3 months away. Bring it on! #IronmanTraining #TriLife #HardWorkPaysOff #TrustTheProcess #RoadToIronman #KeepPushing #NoLimits

Maybe it’s the rain, maybe just me—
heavy limbs, tired mind,
pushed too hard, swam too far, ran past reason.
Now there’s food in my belly,
warmth settling deep,
but my mind still moves—
racing, or something else?
Let the questions wait.
Let the nap take me first.
