This how you finish a 50m Fly final. Half a metre down at the flags to winning by half a stroke. Keep your head down guys. It could be the winning tactic

I love being a coach whether swimming or triathlon. Here’s one of my coached athletes Dylan, smashing his way around the @IRONMANtri #ironmanwales bike course in his @nopinz Tri suit

Loughborough Performance Centre coaches Scott, Connor, Jo & Ian with Physiologist Ben all over testing this morning. Collecting valuable data on Wk 12 of 16 cycle prior to our final competitions. Testing 14 athletes over 3 sessions! Lots of focus needed! 🥸 @Aquatics_GB
