Rob Brackstone

Level Two Coach

Having fallen in love with all aspects of Triathlon since 2013 I've been passionate about taking people on that same journey I have had and positively promoting our sport. Whether it is to train and take part in the sport just to keep fit as is the case with me (although I love race day and a washing machine swim start too), maximise their potential and compete as is the case with many others, or just go out and have fun like all of us, I want to help facilitate those goals.

I cannot claim to have won x, or triumphed at y, but I love to learn, teach, and engage with a passion for getting out there and taking part. Swim, Bike, Run and have fun!

I believe participation is everything and engagement is key. Triathlon can hold a great many fears, swimming well is a difficult skill, cycling in a group can be scary, running is hard work, and putting all 3 together can be daunting. In a club environment we can overcome these issues through great coaching in a wonderful environment training alongside amazing friends who could not be more welcoming.

Medway Tri isn't only for newcomers to the sport. Training in Medway it is not unusual to bump into some of the top Age Group and young junior Triathletes in the UK. As a club we look to help athletes or all ages and levels be the best they can be and help them achieve their ambitions including race victories and podium places. No matter your ability we have every base covered and I love being part of that.

I could not have got any more from our sport in the last 5 years. Increased fitness, health, and the satisfaction of helping others. If you are looking for a new hobby then I urge you to give it a go. If you are looking to improve your ability or a new approach to help you compete at an ever higher level then come and join us!! You will likely never look back, but be aware, Medway Tri is all consuming and addictive for all the right reasons. Your life may never be the same again :-)
