Gail has been part of the TTT family for a number of years and is an active member of the team and the wider UK race community. Her passion for the sport is infectious and she is known as someone who really loves to motivate and support all those around her whether it being her coached athletes, training partners or friends within the community. As well as having a wealth of experience helping athletes of all levels with 70.3 and full distance racing, she specialises in female specific coaching for the over 40s and also nutrition for endurance racing.

I’ve always been massively into sport. As a child, I was a dedicated club swimmer, and that early love for training and competition naturally led me into other sports as I grew older - netball, hockey and squash all played a big part in my life. But it wasn’t until my early 30s that I discovered running. What began as a personal challenge soon turned into a genuine passion, and over the years I’ve completed more than 40 marathons on both road and trail, including eight London Marathons as a Good For Age athlete.

Triathlon came much later. In my late 40s, I bought my first road bike since I being a kid, and that simple purchase opened the door to a whole new world. I entered my first triathlon in 2019 - an Olympic distance at Dorney Lake - and was instantly hooked by the variety, the challenge and the community spirit that surrounds the sport.
