The Sporty Bit
During a 25 year rowing career I was a World Champion 3 times, twice an Olympian and finished my international career after 15 years with a World Silver Medal in the single scull in 2003. I was a lightweight rower which means I understand about losing weight too!
The Concept2 Indoor Rower plays a large part in any rower's training regime, and I could hold my own with the best. My official PB for 2k is 6.09; and for 5k it is 16.12.
Over the last 15 years or so I have coached people of all standards from 11yr old junior scullers, through novice club level to those at national squad standard. Both on the water and on the rowing machine. They generally come back, which I take as positive feedback. I am a Concept 2 Master Instructor.
Normal life
I am married to Claire and we have 3 young children, Olivia, Harvey and Cecily. We live in Nottingham near the river.
Since I retired from competitive rowing I am doing a variety of things including coaching indoors and on the water but most of all, enjoying life without dieting down 10kgs to race-weight. |
