Dan has been a competitive triathlete since 2017, having won his first triathlon, a novice super-sprint event. He now specialises in providing strength and conditioning for runners, cyclists and triathletes.

Dan provides running coaching, with an emphasis on ensuring correct technique first and foremost using advanced gait analysis and retraining to ensure optimal biomechanics and injury prevention, and running programming for all levels of fitness and goals.

Dan also coaches triathletes of all levels, with the ethos of “training smarter, not harder” by integrating strength and conditioning and physiological testing protocols (VO2Max testing using VO2Master and train.red muscle oxygen sensors).
