‘Hi, I’m Mike and I did my first triathlon at Thames Turbo one very stormy bank holiday in 2008 on a borrowed bike and shorts / tee-shirt. Since then I have been hooked and seemed to have got a bit more serious with each passing year. This year I hit 40 and decided to dedicate more time to training with the aim of getting in the GB age group team. Competed in Rother Valley earlier this month and nervously waiting to see if my time is good enough to make the squad. I need some more help and inspiration and heard great things about Viceroys (mainly from Carl!) so decided to join. I am married with 2 little girls so face the usual problems of fitting training in around work/family but so far, so good! Looking forward to meeting you all.’

Good luck with qualifying Mike… are you going to be Viceroys number 4 to buy a plane ticket to Canada?
