I took up triathlon/running about 8 years ago. Ive had a dabble at all distances but Marathon and Ironman being my favourite. Over the last few years I’ve managed to achieve a few of my goals. One was to qualify for the Ironman world championship which I managed in Bolton and raced Kona in 2016. My other aim was to break the 2.30 marathon which I achieved in London 2019 2.28. I now want to go faster…
I’m racing Ironman Barcelona in a few weeks and dreaming of going back to the big Island

Of Greepers Matthew says:
In Kona is where I had my first go of greeper laces and found them brilliant. Always looking at ways of shaving a few seconds and In T2. Whether its freezing hands (not in Kona) or races nerves they are easily tied and adjusted.
