🗣️ What Other Athletes Say:

I was recommended to Ray by a friend. He gave me a plan which was essential for me to complete my first 70.3 triathlon in Taupo. My cycling has improved significantly due to his velocity training sessions! He shared so many handy tips and tricks and I appreciated all his encouragement to help me believe I could do it! Thanks Ray!

So far for me, I’ve completed a half ironman event, which I never thought I’d be able to do. I’ve got to the point where I’m comfortable swimming longer distances, lost about 10 kilograms.
It’s good to have a personalised programme that isn’t a one size fits all, that you can find on the internet….. You’ve got an approachable coach who will take on your feedback, and work with you around life. Just having that adaptability and the personalisation really been key for me.
