DAVID BROWNDavid’s involvement in triathlon began in 2005 when he competed in the Ironbridge Olympic Distance Triathlon. His enthusiasm for triathlon was stimulated by a need to train outside of the gym, having spent too many hours working and training under the same roof, and the desire to improve his swimming. Soon after this race he decided that triathlon coaching was a natural extension to personal training and undertook his L1 course. The progression to L2 and 3 soon followed. He has raced mainly Olympic distance with a few sprints thrown in and plans to progress to middle distance racing in the near future. Outside of racing David loves trail running and mountain biking. Two young daughters also keeps him in check with where his priorities lie! |

MICHELLE ASHWELLMichelle was a triathlon widow for 17 years before deciding to finally have a go herself! She had always presumed that triathlon was only for the naturally talented, uber- fit and svelte folk but in 2008 with a “if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em” attitude, she decided she fancied having a go! When she joined Jetstream she couldn’t swim 2 lengths front crawl, hadn’t ridden a bike since school and couldn’t run for a bus! But Oct 08 saw her complete a supersprint distance and 2009 was her first full season which ended with a half-Ironman. In 2010 Michelle successfully completed Ironman Germany and then Ironman Austria in 2011. Michelle is keen to encourage women in to the sport as well as people who, like her, didn’t enjoy sport at school, aren’t blessed with an innate athletic ability and are there simply to complete not compete, have fun, keep fit and push their personal boundaries. |
