Coaching co ordinator

Natalie George.    Level 1 BTF Coach

In 2010 I completed my first triathlon a super sprint that I did for charity and my triathlon journey developed  from there. I’m not a natural triathlete and have to work hard at all three disciplines but over time my confidence and belief in my abilities has grown from sprints, to Olympic distance, half ironman and then finally to an ironman. In 2019 I become a Level 1 BTF triathlon coach, it’s been so rewarding to see club members grown in their ability and confidence.   It’s been great to be involved in FTC as a coach and see the club grow and the achievements of its members.

Competing for the thrill and fun of it across all distances. Caught the triathlon bug 12+ years ago and have loved it ever since. I started off at the back and I’m slowly working my way forward! My motto: ‘If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing with a smile! 

I have plenty of age group experience and advice to share with those interested enough to listen. :-)
