My Triathlon Journey
Where It All Began
When I first started my triathlon journey, I quickly realised there was so much more to it than just swimming, biking, and running. It felt exciting—but also totally overwhelming. I had so many questions and hardly any answers.
Lost and Unsure
I didn’t know where to start, or who to ask for advice. What do you wear on race day? How do transitions work between the sports? What gear do I really need? It was all new to me, and honestly—it made me anxious being in the unknown. Even worse, there were things I didn’t know I needed to research until race day arrived… and by then, I had to learn the hard way!
The Turning Point
But then—I crossed the finish line of my first triathlon. And that was it. I was hooked. Since that moment, I’ve never looked back. Triathlon became more than a sport for me—it became a lifestyle. It gave me confidence, a new way of thinking, and goals I’d never dreamed of. It even introduced me to a whole new community of amazing friends.
What I’ve Learned
Over the years, I’ve completed more than 50 Sprint and Olympic-distance races, and even finished two Half Ironmans. Along the way, I picked up valuable lessons from every race, every mistake, every coach, and every bit of research. I learned the subtle, powerful habits that make a huge difference—not just in performance, but in staying healthy, motivated, and injury-free. I discovered how to train smart, not just hard.
Why I Created This
And here’s the thing: I realised I wasn’t alone. So many other new triathletes were struggling with the exact same things I did—confused, overwhelmed, and making preventable mistakes that held them back. That’s why I created this. To pass on what I’ve learned. To help more women feel strong, empowered, and excited as they train. And to show you that triathlon doesn’t have to be intimidating—it can be fun, fulfilling, and completely life-changing.
This is for you...
- …If you are feeling overwhelmed with so much information available and need some closer guidance that empowers you to complete your first triathlon.
- …OR If you are looking for support and advice about triathlon, how to train and adopt a sustainable triathlon lifestyle.
- …OR if you need clarity about how the race works, how to prepare for the race and be aware of all the race rules and tactics.
- …OR if you need a little bit of motivation and inspiration to stay accoutable to keep you on the road to your triathlon success.
This isn't for you...
- If you are looking for a personalised training plan.
- OR if you are looking for a personal coach or 1-2-1 sessions.
- Expect quick results – it’s just as much of the journey that counts and the lifestyle you adopt.
- If you’re not prepared to put in the necessary work. It’s about consistency, just like loosing weight doesn’t happen in a day, but at the same time, it doesn’t require you to train all day, every day.
All you need is a bit of passion and dedication and you’ll not only be able to SMASH a triathlon, but you’ll also see yourself get in great physical shape, feel fit, healthy and happy with your new Triathlon lifestyle!
Meeting friends, discovering new places, exceeding your expectations and becoming limitless…and it’s the reason that I am so passionate about Triathlon. Everyone can have this wonderful opportunity. THIS is the reason why Tri2Discover was created.
All the different ways
You might try to learn triathlon on your own:
There’s a lot out there, and it can really add up — in time, money, and energy.
Training App
There are various training plans out there at a membership level.
YouTube
When you search, you might find something useful. A lot of information is male-driven.
Personal Coach
Finding a trusting coach is difficult and usually quite costly.
Going Solo
Although this doesn’t ‘seem’ to cost money, trial and error might be the most expensive (and frustrating) route of all!
