I currently have the privilege of coaching Marie, Katie and Lara in athletic conditioning and running performance.
Lara comes from a competitive swimming background with the Exiles Swim Team. Last Saturday, she also completed a 5K in an impressive 28 minutes—without having specifically trained for it. What a great achievement!
Yesterday morning, after a demanding and exhausting summer, Marie and Katie set out for their final triathlon of the season. Marie finished in an impressive second place. After the swim and bike legs, she was leading the women’s field—fantastic!
Katie once again showed incredible mental strength. Even though the race didn’t go quite as planned, she gave it everything she had on the run and kept pushing all the way to the finish.
What impresses me most is the attitude of these young women. It’s a real pleasure to support them on their athletic journeys. Now we’re looking ahead to next season and getting ready to take it on together—strong, focused and well prepared. 💪🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Three who tested themselves this morning with the best swimmers in Malta.

This morning at about 07:45am Katie, Marie and Meli made their way to the starting line in the water to test themselves again in competition with the best swimmers in Malta. Katie on 1000m while Marie and Meli tested themselves on 2000m.

For me as a coach who supports them in athletics and strength training, it is important to be able to be there to observe at which points I can support the three more efficiently in the future.
In my opinion, all three have a lot of potential and I am glad that I can support and accompany them in their development.

Success Through Teamwork: Arielle Bonnici Completes Her Best 5km Yet!

We congratulate Arielle Bonnici on completing her fourth 5km race – and doing so without any walking breaks or stops, with a new personal best time! 🚀✨

Alongside her is Simon Cilia, who has been working closely with me for over 7 months to provide Arielle with the best possible support and guidance in her Paralympic running journey. Thanks to ongoing communication between Arielle, Simon, the Paralympic Committee, and myself, we can precisely document and tailor her daily training.
Arielle is very attentive to every detail herself, which allows Simon and me to plan her training and recovery with great accuracy. The result: an athlete who, just a year ago, could barely walk and has spent much of her life in a wheelchair, now running in 44:53 minutes as a double amputee!

She is also currently training with Tyron, who emphasizes the importance of small but crucial steps. Only a solid and healthy foundation can lead to continuous progress.
We are incredibly proud of Arielle and look forward to her future successes!

Getting up Tuesday morning at 4:30 a.m., outside it's dark, windy, and the chances of rain are high. Before heading to Salina Beach, I quickly looked for a parking spot to avoid getting a ticket for illegal parking—about 30 minutes before start time. The water temperature in Malta was around 15-16°C; the wetsuit covered everything important, but my face and head immediately registered cold pain. After nearly 13 minutes in the water, in the front pack of the top 10 athletes, the transition to the bike went smoothly and quickly—just getting my feet into the bike shoes took a few minutes, as my fingers were numb from wind and water.
The headwind on the way back, combined with uphill sections, was really intense—there's no better way to simulate this in training. But from the third lap, I found my rhythm because, in a sprint distance triathlon, there's only one rule: go all out! Thanks to my mentor Keith Galea, who has been supporting me for two years with running technique and performance, the transition to running was very smooth and effortless.
The 20 km bike course was a tough battle—10 km against wind and elevation, which was noticeable in the last 2 km of the run. That's what makes a simple triathlon on a day like this: pushing your body and mind beyond your limits, no matter how hard and painful it gets. That’s when your true self shows up.
In triathlon, there are no shortcuts—full throttle or nothing. Those who finish successfully carry a smile and a sense of self-worth. Later, I heard about Liam Daly from Gozo, who was injured in a bike crash—I hope it's not too serious and wish him a quick recovery!
Respect to all competitors finishing under these conditions—you are amazing! 💪🏅
