How long have you been doing triathlon?
In this episode we have the pleasure of chatting to Mick Skivington. Mick is 67 and did his first triathlon 36, yes 36 years ago. After seeking out a triathlete he had heard of and going to watch him compete, Mick started training to compete himself in his first triathlon, even though he didn't feel ready.
His new found pal showed him how to swim and train to complete his first race.
36 years later with probably thousands of races of all distances and denominations, Mick is still training and racing today. He has had success along the way reaching several podium places representing GB in his agegroup.
This episode is packed with memories of what it was like back in the day when computers and carbon were not a thing.
hope you enjoy it.
