Ex-police, currently a podcast host for the Fitness With Jade podcast

Current sporting discipline

Hyrox and Ironman 70.3 (endurance events and running events are my thing)

How and why did you get into this sport?

I’ve always done group fitness, but I got into training for Hyrox in 2023 to prove to myself I can do something hard. I then wanted to challenge myself even further and signed up for my first Ironman 70.3

I am now addicted to anything hard that involves some form of cardio.

What has been your biggest recent battle with training?

When I went back to drinking, it ruined my training and really set me back. I am now not drinking again and can see the improvements!

If we were to open your diary from the last week, what would it say?

I have just signed up as a sponsored athlete with The Performance Project and had my first coached week last week with Matt. The win was completing my sessions and releasing my latest podcast episode on how I quit drinking (again).
