Introducing F4L athlete – Jen

Jen comes from an endurance challenge and ultra running background but has set herself a physical challenge of completing an IRONMAN 70.3 in 2020... 

Why do you do Triathlon? 

I don’t! (yet) I am brand new to the world of triathlon ..well, except for a mini triathlon I did when on holiday in New Zealand about 5 years ago!

What is your sporting background?   

I enjoy Ultra trail running and cycling for pleasure and over the years have taken part in several wonderful endurance challenges, including cycling John O’Groats to Lands End and The Fred Whitton Challenge, and more recently endurance running including The Hardmoor 26.2 Ultra Trail Marathon Series, and The Lyke Wake run.

What attracted you to F4L?

The expertise, personalised coaching support, professionalism, structure and systems, and impressive proven track record, completely jumped out at me as being exactly what I was needing to help me succeed, learning from experts in the world of triathlon.

What are your targets? 

I have set myself the target of successfully completing the IRONMAN 70.3 and in a great time for my age category. To be fitter and faster, and to master techniques to enable me to perform at my best, whilst enjoying the whole journey of succeeding as a triathlete.

Favourite motivational quote:

“You are just beginning the best part of your life” - A Hicks

Favourite training song/music track: 

Usually I don’t listen to music when I train as I enjoy the peace and quiet of nature and the great outdoors, however, I do appreciate all different kinds of music. I am sure that any kind of upbeat tunes will be super motivating when I hit the turbo trainer over the coming months.
