Bio
Darren has been involved in coaching for over a decade - starting his sporting journey as an adult (after a fairly sedentary life until that point!). His desire to learn more about the processes involved in developing as an athlete lead him to qualifying as a running and triathlon coach, delivering sessions with local clubs and later setting up an endurance coaching service alongside SPC coach Simon.
Darren specialises in our run lab services, bike fitting and fitness testing. He also works alongside Simon to provide our unique testing and analysis days for individuals, groups and teams.
His enthusiasm for the detail and underlying science to training and racing have benefited him in his own sporting endeavours - competing in running, cycling and multi-sport events himself from 5k runs and 10 mile time trials, up to middle distance triathlon - knocking almost two hours off his Ironman 70.3 race time since he began. Darren has worked his way from the back of the pack to being competitive in events locally and further afield, qualifying for GB Age group championships and competing in the Island Games, and believes that with the right information, analysis and input anyone can make considerable improvements in their performance.
