Lane

I am a level 3 jumps development and hurdles/sprints coach with many decades of experience. I love these events! There is a big difference between being an athlete and being a coach, and I’ve done both. I come from a heptathlon background, so I understand the demands of competition but also have experience as a coach in managing the skills, training load and event preparation these competitions need.
