🎉 Big congrats to Karen Round! 🎉
Karen has just completed her six-week coaching class in our 6am Wednesday swim session at Harvey Hadden — and what a difference it’s made! 🏊♀️✨
There’s been some awesome improvements and such a great atmosphere in the lane she’s been coaching.
👏 A special shoutout to Lee Maddock, who knocked a massive 26 seconds off his 200m CSS test in Karen’s lane — amazing work! 💪
We can’t wait to see what Coach Karen goes on to do next!
💬 Fancy giving it a go? Get in touch for a trial session and join the fun!

Here’s a quick update from our Head of Coaching, Matt Waterfield, as we move into off-season training.
In the pool:
We’re going back to technique! Following the Swim Smooth approach from British Triathlon, we’ll be focusing on their technical hierarchy — starting this month with the fundamental skill of breathing. Expect a mix of aerobic swims and short, hard efforts to lay a solid foundation for 2026. 💪
If you’re serious about making progress, now’s the perfect time to commit to the pool and set yourself up for a strong season ahead.
On the track:
Mario will be leading Wednesday night sessions, with plenty of athletes now targeting running events post-multisport season. We’re lucky to have access to a safe, floodlit running track — perfect for speed work through the darker months.
👉 Want to join us? Come along for a free trial session and see what it’s all about!

📜 On National Poetry Day 📜
Do not go gentle into that Triathlon,
Swim, bike, run and transition with all your might.
CSS tests, track laps, cross country trails,
Marathons conquered—no effort ever fails.
From East Leake Triathlon to Outlaw Full,
Relays, every leg, every pull.
PBs smashed, records set in stride,
Coaches and volunteers always by our side.
October 18th, Swim Bike Run Mini—book quickly!
A celebration of spirit, grit and plenty!
🏊♂️🚴♀️🏃♂️
