Episode 20 features GB Agegrouper Tim Fowler
Tim was brought up in a family with a love of horses, growing up and into adulthood Tim rode raced and trained horses. After many years of amateur racing and several injuries along the way Tim describes getting a proper job and became a prison officer.
Tims lifestyle completely changed from always outdoors to always being indoors and as the time went by he became less active and started gaining weight.
Tim was given the the kickstart he needed after a couple of younger work colleagues challenged Tim to take part in the Oxford half marathon, he trained solidly and to their astonishment beat them all in the race.
With his new found fitness Tim didn't want to waste it so he kicked on with more running races, but after watching the Blenheim triathlon on TV Tim bought a bike trained over the winter and started his venture into multisport.
After racing at a Agegroup qualifier Tim did some research into what it involved and decided to try and qualify he did his research, raced and qualified for his first race in 2015. Since then he hasn't looked back and has qualified every year since then.
Like many of us, Tim sees multisport as a lifestyle.
He has been the Chairman of the Prison Officers Triathlon Club for the past three years and his long term goal is to keep going.
I hope you enjoy this chat as much as we did and that Tims story inspires you.
