She has completed a number of (more normal distance) triathlons over the years and coaches groups of triathletes in swimming in the the open water during the spring and summer.

Sessions include:

• Technique/drills

• Endurance training

• Improving aerobic threshold

• Starts, turns, sighting and drafting

• Advice on correct equipment

• Mental preparation
