This book tells you everything you need to know about triathlon, whether you be a sporting novice or an elite athlete in another sport.

This book will tell you how to be the best that you can be in triathlon - not necessarily by training harder, but by training smarter.

Person
While his first competitive experience was finishing last in a school cross-country race, over the past 30 years Mark has crossed the finish line in over 1,000 races worldwide. Although he once came second in a marathon, his strength has always been in multi-sport events, where his wins have been numerous. He has completed a massive total of 400 triathlons, including 32 Ironman® events. He once won one triathlon in the morning and then came second in another in the afternoon.
Mark has won many national triathlon medals and has represented his country as an elite triathlete and now as an age-group competitor. He started coaching in 1998 and has helped triathletes at every level - from first-timers to age-group competitors to elite athletes. He is qualified to British triathlon coaching levels one and two.
