| greatest
achievement in triathlon |
Finishing
without beiong carted away by the Tobins Brother car. I was
pretty happy with myself when I finished the Enduro at Brighton
last year. J9 convinced me to do it, I have never been so nervous
in my life, I was in a pretty bad state before the race, chucking,
fainting etc! |
| greatest
achievement outside of triathlon |
Finishing
my degree and getting the job I wanted. |
| best
result? |
Not
applicable! |
| best
and worst triathlon legs and why? |
Swim is good, usually get out somewhere near the front, get
passed by most people on the bike and anyone who hasn't passed
me on the bike passes me on the run, get the picture? |
| most
embarrassing moment in triathlon? |
Getting
on my bike wet and slipping over the seat and crashing down
the other side. |
