“My journey with Matt Luxton started at a Cornish cider festival, not your average training story.

From Gloucester rugby to Ironman Barcelona in my 50th year… it was a massive shift. When I started, I couldn’t swim. I had knee injuries, and even had to use an AlterG treadmill to train.

But Matt gave me a plan and a team. I trained alongside Simon, Louise, Matt Breed… and the support, banter, and shared struggles got us all to the start line.

Matt understood life’s pressures, family, work and coached me through them. He never let me feel like I couldn’t do it.

One year later, I crossed the line at Ironman Barcelona. Not just completing a race, but proving what’s possible when you’ve got the right coach, the right plan, and the right people around you.”

🔥Wall of Fame: Louise Wakeham
Ironman Barcelona Finisher🔥

“I watched friends cross the finish line at Ironman Wales… and something clicked. Despite only being able to swim breaststroke, I came home and entered Ironman Barcelona.

I wouldn’t have even considered it without Matt. He coached me from zero triathlon experience through one of the biggest challenges of my life.

There were hard days, getting in the pool and getting straight back out again. Messaging Matt, full of doubt and every time, he put my head back in the game.

A turning point was his training camp in Tenerife. I came away feeling like anything was possible… and with some friends for life.

One year, a few prep races, and a rollercoaster of training later, I stood on the start line in Barcelona. Matt was right there in person, watching us take on what he helped us prepare for all year.

That’s coaching. That’s support.
It changed my life.”

It’s been a hectic month or so of coaching clients out there getting their goals achieved…. This post is dedicated to those who have done a FULL Ironman in recent times. Firstly, Adam Roberts hitting a PB at Ironman Wales taking 25 minutes off his time from last year. Then nailing his 2nd Ironman at Barcelona this time around in 12 hours plus a few seconds…with all sorts of things happening on the run which makes this achievement even better. A 1 hour 6 min swim and 5 hour 17 bike. A very very solid performance there! Then last but not least .triathlon going sub 11 hours on his first Ironman at the hilly course in Portugal. This guys progress in the last 3 years has been unreal! Another great swim, very solid bike and run to get that sub 11 on his first full Ironman. Top work team….. lots more going to be coming from those doing half Ironmans in the next 2 months as we head towards the in New Zealand.
