What I’m up to
right now.


Here are the things I’m currently focused on, in no particular order:

Triathlon training.
2022 was the start of my triathlon journey. It began with a couple of olympic tri’s and gave me the hunger to progress. I enjoy the multi discipline activities which mixes up my week and has given me the opportunity to improve my lesser skills (bike and swim). Last year; 2023, I raced my first Ironman (70.3) – 2025 is the year I’ll attempt a full Ironman(!!!)… just saying that makes me shudder, training has started already.

Married life.
This year was full on organising a wedding in 6 months. We had the best day with our friends and family in Morocco – it was perfect. Married life now in full swing.

Reading / Listening.
Current list:
My nose tastes like swimming pools, by my good friend Sam Lightfinch
Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing, Matthew Perry

Recently completed:
Never finished, another inspiring read by David Goggins
Amerzonia: A Savage Journey Through The Americas
Will, by Will Smith (Find a better book!)
Can’t hurt me, David Goggins

Business.
This year has been steady, a healthy work / life balance. At one point I facilitated 4 workshops in one month from Sheffield and The Lake District to The Midlands and Cotswolds for a mix of clients; A law firm, a business with an app created to improve medical tracking in schools and trusts, an environmental company focusing on improving the local water quality and a trust website redesign.
The latest website went live this year which was a pleasure to work on: otilloswimrun.com & gruvi.tv

Travelling.
What a year. We started the year the other side of the world, the ‘now wife’ was offered a secondment in Australia for 6 weeks. Naturally, I joined her – you must take these opportunities! Of course, we sandwiched that with trips to The Phillipines and Borneo. We had a couple of trips to Morocco – to check out the wedding venue and of course for the ceremony. We have one final trip to see our friends get married in Vegas.
