I have been working with Simon since November 2022. I have worked with a few coaches previously and had some reservations. I quickly found out the massive difference in what Simon was providing to my previous experiences.

His level of detail and structure were outstanding but more importantly how he conveyed all the information to me so I had a full understanding on why we were doing what we were doing. He can cut through all the techno information and put it in simple terms giving me complete confidence in the process while also helping me understand the reasons behind training builds and why it's set out and periodised.

The results speak for themselves, with a PB Ironman and PB 70.3 and Half Marathon. The most valuable aspect was having someone with Simon’s knowledge, experience and support to help me through a few tough times. I had several unfortunate injuries from things outside of our control (I'd like to point out, not Simon’s fault or training, just unfortunate) which set me back many times and sudden international travels for my wife's IVF treatment. It's been a tricky, sometimes frustrating road coming back to full fitness. Simon supported and restructured training to fit and work through rehab sometimes pulling right back and then re-thinking everything but we always worked it out to get me race-ready every time.
