Meet our Head Coach Sarah!
I started triathlon in 2009, some friends invited me to support them at a triathlon event the racing looked to be great fun and soon after they challenged me to participate and I truly haven’t looked back or stopped since. The constant opportunity to review and improve myself, the structure and the excitement of a race motivates and thrills me. The daily, weekly, monthly and annual training regime gives structure to my life and gives me the opportunity to build on my strengths and improve . The process of determining what events to enter and how then to plan and train for them has a myriad of possibilities and knock on scenarios. If all that isn’t enough there is the added benefit of meeting new people whilst training or racing. One of the unexpected bonuses over the past few years is that I’ve made several good friends and met lots of like minded people, it’s a great community.
After leaving the corporate world of work, I started thinking that I wanted to give something back to the sport that I love and which has given me so much. I completed my coaching qualifications through British Triathlon which has lead me to leading the coaching team here at Richmond Tri Club.
The improvements I have made through the process or consistent training and racing have taken me to several European and World championships and I am proud of my best placing as 1st in my Age Group at the all England BTF Championships. My passion remains to help and guide others to succeed in their goals and that’s what leads me here today…
