Welcome to Viceroys Stuart

With the start of the 2014-15 season, we have an influx of new Viceorys, our first being Stuart Amory, who is a successful ‘celebrity’ personal trainer based in SW London (it’s true, you can even Google him!):stuartamory

‘I left the RAF in 2005 where I was a Physical Training Instructor and Parachute Jumping Instructor for 10 years. I’m very active on twitter and through my hashtag #FitTeam14 (changes every year obv) I aim to motivate the masses, or those who follow me to get fitter and lead healthier lifestyles. I’ve always been a keen runner and a few years ago became addicted to parkrun and the goal of decreasing my PB. Feeling the self induced pressure of my followers to lead by example I declared I would do a sub 3 hour marathon and after 2 attempts (PB 3.05.06) this is still a goal I wish to conquer. Having now done 7 triathlons, another goal I have is to do an ironman in 2015…why 2015? Well, I have a young family and want to space out the training/cost and to quieten down people who’ve said that I could do an ironman. Oh and I’m 40 in 2015 too! 

I’ve joined Viceroys Triathlon Club to help me realise that there’s actually 3 disciplines in a triathlon so any help in the water and on two wheels would be gratefully appreciated…and pink suits me! ‘

We look forward to helping you achieve your goals Stuart, welcome to VTC.

About Kate Wallace

I've always been involved with sport of some description, particularly adrenaline sports (skiing, boarding, kite-surfing, bungi jumps, parachute jumps, mountain biking) and endurance events (7 marathons, lots of halfs, Caledonian Challenge, London to Brighton bike ride, Moonwalk, played/coached rugby), but I'm relatively new to triathlon as it's actually taken the place of other sports after a couple of bad accidents! Although looking at the biographies of all you other Viceroys I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that all I've done are a few team traitahlons (running or cycling leg) and a couple of super sprints and sprints on my own, I'm hoping that being a Viceroy might persuade me that swimming in open water over 400m is actually possible.
