Send us a text On this episode we speak to Hannah Storm, great name by the way, after she got in touch and said sh would love to com on the pod and share her journey. Hannah says "I began my age group journey last year, racing in Townsville which was absolutely amazing, having only really learned to cycle properly a couple of years ago. As a kid, I hated sport, so I certainly don't come from a traditional background like some folks do, but I took up running at university and then, after injuring myself training for a marathon in 2022, I got back on my bike because I knew my mental health needed it. I'm a journalist by profession and have been fortunate to travel the world, but it's taken its toll, and now I work with newsrooms and other organisations to normalise conversations around wellbeing. I had a podcast myself for a while where we spoke with famous journalists about their mental health and the stories that had impacted them. In any case, if you are open to more guests speaking about their stories and mental health, I'd love to be on your podcast at some stage. It's my dream to inspire others to speak openly and also be a role model for women who may reach middle age and think they have lost sense of their own identity, and a role model to my kids too."

Send us a text Welcome along to another episode of AMP, on this episode we speak to Grant Paling, a triathlete of 11 years but relatively new to agegroup. Grant says "When I was a kid I had big dreams, like most kids do. Astronaut, actor, race car driver - the kind of dreams only an uninhibited child can conjure up, free to think of what might be. One of those dreams was to represent my country. Football, maybe athletics? I was inspired through watching my sporting heroes on tv. And thanks to my dad’s love of sport, we watched a lot of it! Those days are now long gone, and I thought those dreams were left behind. When I started triathlon in 2013 I never dreamed of reaching any kind of heights, I just knew I loved it from day one. I played football for 26 years (much of which I spent chasing my first touch) and whilst I achieved some success, triathlon was different. Still part of a team, the amazing Tunbridge Wells Triathlon Club, my other “family”, but now ultimately competing on my own - no team around to do it for me if I didn’t perform. But I persevered, inspired by those around me doing incredible things and in 2024, at 41 years old, I travelled to Coimbra in Portugal donning the Great Britain tri suit for the very first time and achieving one of those lifelong dreams by racing in the Middle Distance team for British Triathlon in the European Age Group Championships. I followed that up by competing again for GB in the Standard distance at the European Champs in Vichy in September and despite a bike crash, finished 17th overall. I'm known for my epic race reports within Tunbridge Wells Triathlon Club - I'd love to come on and share some of those experiences over the years and also to talk about how I reached new levels using an AI coaching app to prepare for stepping up to Age Group level, especially being time limited with 2 relatively young kids aged 5 and 7. Game changer!" we had a great chat about, how he juggles being a parent and triathlon and how he implements AI coaching in his training. please enjoy. you can find Grant on Instagram @GRANTPALING You Can Follow us on YouTube - AMP GB Instagram @amp_1967 Facebook : AMPGB find all our episodes on our website Website is : https://agegroupmultisportpodcast.buzzsprout.com/ email: agegroupmultisportpodcast@gmail.com If you are an agegroup athlete and would like to come on the pod, get in touch.…

Send us a text Welcome along to another episode of the Agegroup Multisport Podcast. On this episode, we speak to Andy Holliday, Gb age group triathlete and duathlete. Andy states "Previously had done marathons and other running events and before that had done a lot of time trials and road races and mtb events. I started multisport at the London Duathlon in Richmond in 2018, and got a reasonable result, like I finished mid-pack but it was enough to raise the idea of what was possible. My brother was at this time competing in Ironman events and mentioned the age-group with British Tri. A bit of investigation and it seemed like a possibility. Next event was Oulton Park a qualifier. While I was outside of qual time I was close enough to start to think it was possible. Next up was Stockton Duathlon and on a grim day I bagged a spot on the age-group team. Then COVID hit and my event was repeatedly postponed before finally getting to compete at Aviles. That was a mental journey almost not going 2 weeks before as I believed I wasn't good enough etc. classic imposter stuff. First experience of AG team was amazing, loved the event the race the build up wandering around the town seeing other athletes in GB kit. This year I had qualified for Vichy in Standard Triathlon, got there in the best shape I had been in, super confident of being able to deliver a great performance. Unfortunately my race lasted less than 3 minutes due to a cold shock panic attack in the water. Really interesting about how this impacted me and rather than throwing me off has provided greater motivation to compete. Qualified again last year for Middle Distance and Standard Duathlon for the upcoming Pontevedra, also aiming for the cross duathlon qualification. The big goal is the Zofingen Long Distance in Sept 2025. Also maybe a half and marathon PB as well. Outside of triathlon I am a performance and leadership coach and work a lot with talking about how the mind impacts performance either positively or negatively and how to harness this." Really interesting to chat about his mental issues and how he has worked them through. hope you enjoy his journey. you can follow Andy on Instagram @andyholladay1 you can vote for us using this link https://www.sportspodcastgroup.com/shortlist-category/ You Can Follow us on YouTube - AMP GB Instagram @amp_1967 X : agegroupmultisportpodcast Facebook : AMPGB find all our episodes on our website Website is : https://agegroupmultisportpodcast.buzzsprout.com/ email: agegroupmultisportpodcast@gmail.com If you are an agegroup athlete and would like to come on the pod, get in touch.…

Send us a text On our latest episode features Paul Haslam Paul says "I was born raised in Chesterfield. My sporting background started as a child where I was very keen on football and later in my teens, cricket, tennis & hockey, amongst other sports. I struggled to get in the school football team until I was about 14 when I finally started to grow & bulk up a bit & found myself able to muscle my way about a bit more. After school, I continued with sport at college, mainly squash and then found myself encouraged into joining the Dept water polo team as they were looking for new additions. Now that was an eye opener. My first game I only played the 2 nd half and I was absolutely knackered by the end, so much so, I slipped and slid from top to bottom on the stairs to the changing rooms. I thought squash was tough till I got involved in water polo – the toughest sport I’ve ever done. After college I ended up working in the coal mining industry. My sporting life was mainly darts around that time. I later joined a Sunday League type football team and also found myself involved in the works cricket team. Between the age of 28 and 58 any remotely sporting connections I had were limited to recreational activities with the kids such as mountain bike rides on trails, not roads. Over the 30 years my weight had gradually risen from below 11 stone and 32” waist to almost 15 stone and a near 40” waist. Then out of the blue in August 2018, Karen announced to me that she was going to do something called “Couch to 5k”. What the hell is that, I thought. Well I soon found out as I was seconded to a support role, which basically meant I was doing it too. My initial response was to say to Karen that I’d probably run about 50 yards and collapse. By May 2019, Id lost about 4.5 stone in weight. 9th June 2019 finally arrived & that was the start of my triathlon pursuit. Southport Triathlon was only my 2nd Standard Triathlon and my first-ever qualifier. And so, the GB Age Group experience was about to begin in 2022 eventually named as in a place called Olsztyn in Poland. Having submitted a sprint result for European and World Triathlon events, I also qualified for Montreal World Sprint Tri a as last gap spot for Munich Europeans Sprint Tri, which I had desperately wanted to do, for the trip to Munich, as city we came to fall in love with. For Olsztyn in May 2022 I managed to finish a totally unexpected 2nd place in the 60-64 Age Group. Since that very first event, I’ve gone on to do a total of 16 GB starts including mixed team relays, 4 events in 2022, 3 events in 2023 including another silver in the Europeans Standard Tri (converted to standard duathlon) and 9 events in 2024 including a silver in the European Middle Distance Duahtlon in Alsdorf and 2 bronzes in the Europeans in Vichy.

Send us a text This episode features Robert Holloway, who has been in our sport for 35 years. Robert says " I played football to a reasonable standard until I was 16 and like most kids of my generation I was very active either doing a 3 mile walk to school there and back and then kicking a ball around when I got home. Not much happened sport’s wise until early 1984 when my colleagues at work dared me to compete in the Civil Service and Post Office half marathon at Windsor Great Park. Training was slow to start with but I persevered and finished in a time of 1hr 34m. Those in the know told me that that was a good time for a newbie so then decision was taken to give this running lark a go. I joined my local running club, Woking AC, and was soon taking part in a number of local road races. By 1986 In had built up my training volume to have a crack at the full marathon distance. I chose the 1986 Abingdon marathon to pop my marathon cherry and finished in a time of 2hrs 54m. That time gave me the incentive to pursue marathon running as my preferred distance and in 1987 my crowning glory came at the London Marathon when I clocked 2hrs 42m. I then set my sights on breaking the 2hrs 40m barrier but all those weeks of 100 mile training took their toll and it was a case of managing one lower leg injury after another. My road running days were not what they used to be but rescue came in the form of a running magazine article on this new fangled sport called triathlon. I could clearly run a bit and always enjoyed swimming and could ride a bike so why not give it ago? I entered the Wokingham Try a Tri sprint triathlon in 1989. I. I can’t recall my time but I must have enjoyed it because some 35 years later I am still competing in triathlon and multisport. In 2009 not only my triathlon World but my Whole World collapsed around me. It turned out that I had suffered a major bilateral pulmonary embolism preceded by a blood clot that had found its way into both of my lungs. Needless to say my triathlon days were put on hold. In good time I got back into something like normal training but didn’t compete until 2014 when, on a whim, I entered the Hever Castle sprint triathlon. To my astonishment I came home with an age group win and another trophy for the cabinet! I continued to train and compete at a reasonable standard but in 2016 at age 62 I decided that I had achieved everything I wanted to achieve in the sport and called it a day. Or so I thought! Turning the clock forward to 2019 and the onset of covid, I was still working full time but without any sporting activity for about three years or so I had managed to put on almost four stone over my normal racing weight of ten stone. I was soon working from home and the temptation to go out for a run in the vain hope of losing weight became too strong. As the weight melted away I discovered that I was pretty useful on the bike and the run so much so that within a year I had qualified for and competed in the World Duathlon Championships in Aviles. Other championship events followed in Bilbao, Ibiza and more recently, Coimbra where I achieved my best ever finish of fifth place and third Brit home in the 70-74 age group. I have my eyes on a 70.3 event in 2026, possibly Jeselo, and in 2027 I would hope to qualify for the World multisport championships in Edmonton, Canada. I also want to experiment with aquabike and aquathlon.

Send us a text Welcome back to the Agegroup Multisport Podcast. this episode we have the pleasure of speaking with Natasha Pertwee, who got in touch with us to share her story on our Pod. Natasha says "I'm not sure that I'm really very interesting, so please don't worry if you feel I'm not suitable for this podcast! I live in Perth, Australia Quick summary of my mutlisport history: I originally started running after I had my kids. After a couple of marathons, I looked for a change and someone mentioned triathlon. I taught myself to swim from You tube and put road wheels on my mountain bike and made it through my first triathlon on a Wednesday evening at Hever Castle. I dabbled for a couple of years and then said to my friend that if I didn't get on a podium the following year, I would quit. She helped me with a bit of a training plan and I did indeed move up to podium places. I decided to try for age group. I joined a club and stepped up my training and went to Eaton Dorney via the Mallorca 70.3!! (Yes, I struggle to say no to things!!). I did well enough to qualify on roll down, but I wanted to be sure, so I drove to Strathclyde and qualified in 3rd place. Off to Mexico (2016) and managed a 9th place finish in the sprint. Shortly afterwards I moved to Australia. I'd got the bug and decided to fly back to the UK in 2018 to qualify for GB again. It was a double qualifier that year for Gold Coast and Lausanne. Meanwhile I was competing in Austalia and qualified for Ironman 70.3 worlds, but I decided not to go. Gold Coast sprint tri was in 2018 and after that I gave myself 10 weeks to go from sprint to full Ironman! I did Busselton Ironman in 11:30 (ish!!!). 2019 saw me do the Etape de Tour and then Lausanne sprint worlds a month later. Still for GB. I finished 2019 with anther 70.3 and another world qualification. 2020 and covid hit. We continued to race in WA and I did SEVEN gravel race, another 70.3 (and another worlds place) and the road cycling event called Tour of Margaret River. 2021 was my citizenship and with that my first chance to qualify for Aus. I trained hard for the qualifying race in December and the week before I came off my bike and fractured my clavicle. Luckily in my warm up, I'd gone to the state championship for Duathlon and had won, so I redirected my plans to the Duathlon Worlds in Romania instead. 2022 saw me shift to train running. I did my first 80km ultra in May and went to Romania in June (5th place) and first in the green and gold! I finished the year with UTMB Kosciusko 50km. 2023 was the covid delayed 70.3 worlds in Finland for Aus. And another state duathlon championship. 2024: I ran 2000km in the first 6 months to train for UTMB Verbier in July. It was cancelled the day before due to storms!!! Townsville Duathlon worlds 4 weeks later (4th) Now, I'm back to trail running and have UTMB Thailand in December and hopefully UTMB CCC in August next year!

Send us a text It was a pleasure to meet and chat to Irish Multisport Athlete Rob Dwyer Robs story, though relatively new to multisport, was refreshing to hear. Rob says "I came from a hurling back round which I played right up until last May 2023. I decided to retire from it and a friend of mine was at me to have a go at a triathlon since covid, with that I took on my first try a tri in June of 2023." "After that first one I was hooked and with the season pretty much under way, I decided to take on the pikeman an Olympic distance Triathlon in Wexford that year. That was a wrap for 2023, then over the Christmas period I was training away on the turbo and my friend decided it would be great idea to take on Ironman Wales in September 2024 which I signed up for. " "So with that done I got training and decided to to take on the duathlon season in 2024 with kicking of my season off in Waterford and wrapping it up in The Phoniex park for the national finals. With my results in that being good enough I was lucky enough to be put forward to represent Ireland at the world championships in Malaga later this year."

Send us a text It was greta to have an athlete who has represented his country in a different sport. On this episode we speak to David Kelleher, an Ulta runner who has represented Ireland. David Says "I played rugby at an amateur level up until I was 34. I have always been into running. Once I finished playing rugby I wanted to focus a little more on running. I completed my first marathon in 2021, and have been going since. I have completed 2 Ultra-Marathons, and am training for my next one in September (48kms through the Wicklow Mountains). I represented Republic of Ireland in the World Masters Mountain Running Championships in 2022 (M35-39). Alongside some great GB athletes to include Andrew Douglas. Would love to put the green jersey on again. I have also published a book called “Stop, Breathe, Read”. It has good some good press (a collection of thoughts processed out while trail running). Hope You enjoy Davids Journey, you can follow him on Instagram @o_ceileachair12 and find his book here https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stop-Breathe-Read-Poems-simplicity-ebook/dp/B0BTTDRC4X?ref_=ast_author_mpb Thanks for listening.

Send us a text Welcome to the latest epsode of our pod. On this episode we chat to pone very determined lady. I first met Nic when we were over at the European Multisport Champs in Portugal, she had travelled over with former guest Robert Myler, who suggested Nic should come on and share her story. Nic says " Im a full-time working mum with 2 young children. Sport is my hobby and I love it. I have run from a small age, my first run I remember was a 1.5 mile road race when I was about 12 and then the school cross country races on the sand dunes in Irvine with the wind battering me. That didn’t put me off and I did my first half marathon at 17 and the London Marathon at 21. My main achievements to date are completing the triple crown in 2022 – the Highland Fling, West Highland Way ultra and Devil O’ the Highlands races, completing Celtman solo extreme triathlon and representing GBR in the European Duathlon Championships. I run because I enjoy it. It’s an escape from the real world and I get thinking space. I love the outdoors and this gives me a chance to see some amazing scenery. I always run on holiday (at the request of the family) as I find all the great places we can go adventuring to later. I’m also quite competitive and enjoy the races…the muddier the better! I’m a role model to my children and others showing that us girls / mums can do these things and inspire the next generation. My best and worst run moments: My children being at the end of my ultra races and running with me to cross the finish line, they are my inspiration and love seeing their faces as I near the end. Worst was when I had an undetected stress fracture in my foot which eventually broke, 3 operations over 3 years until it healed and was told at one point I’d never run again. In my spare time I coach, I was a tennis coach for 20 years until injury struck but I have now retrained and qualified as a personal trainer, running and triathlon coach with Glasgow Triathlon Club. I have been leading trail runs for many years."
