Name: Aaron Steele.

Age: 29

Occupation: Civil Servant & part time lifeguard/fitness instructor .

Years in Triathlon:2

Triathlon Highlights or recent performances: Completing the Ironman distance Outlaw race a few weeks ago in 12 hrs 18 mins!

Current Goal: Becoming an ironman was my big goal this year, but right now I’m going for my 8th race of the season in September, and fingers crossed I get an 8th PB

Next Year’s Goal: Most definitely going for another Ironman event to get sub 12 hours if possible.

Favourite Training Sessions: Running is where I feel happiest out of the 3 disciplines, so any run session is a winner in my eyes.

What made you take up the sport? Coming from running, this was the next step, and as I have a BIG list of things to do before I’m 30, becoming an Ironman was 1 of them!

Favourite food/drink: Tough 1, when I’m training it’s pasta’s and strawberry protein shakes, when I’m not, it’s Chinese and a few beer.

Favourite bit of kit/equipment: Definitely my bike, I bought a Kuota earlier in the year and I love it.

Who do you see as your main rivals? Getting 1 over on your mates is always good banter, but running past someone in a different club kit is class.

Finish this sentence: If I wasn’t training I would be ....much heavier for sure, and who knows, I might even have time for a girlfriend haha
