Ollie Turner – Triathlete

Illness & setbacks  Hey all,  Firstly, I hope you’re all keeping well in this new strange normal we’re all living in.  To give a brief run-down of my life over the last month. I initially took best part of 2 weeks away from full-time training due to being whipped out by a nasty stomach virus … More Improvise | Adapt | Overcome

The unprecedented situation has meant we’ve all had more times on our hands (exception to essential workers – much respect and thank you). I’ve certainly had time to reflect on the situation and as an individual how I am going to approach it and see it through. It’s a tough time for all. Many losing … More There’s no ‘i’ in team

2020 didn’t start quite the way I had planned. After finishing the final race of 2019 on a downer (pardon the pun) with a crash in SLT Malta I was hungry to get after a good result. My eagerness if anything, being a burden to my training. After having some down time, I went straight … More A little winter update…

Where can I start… another hectic couple of months passed by in a flash. This time covering Super League qualifiers, Island games, British champs and one big old training block! The first race block covered Cardiff triathlon, Poznan SL and Island games. As always some high highs and some low lows. Cardiff triathlon (British sprint … More – Mid-season update –

After gallivanting about in the southern hemisphere throughout the European winter it was time to head back to Cardiff Wales, to the squad, but most importantly uni! With end of year exams fast approaching, training and school work were my main priorities. The focus for the season being to gain European cup starts/race at the … More Highs and lows – all part of the process

6 spontaneous weeks later and I am finally on my way back to Cardiff! It all kicked off with Singapore for the SL grand finale. Coming from not so sunny Wales I knew it was going to be a sweat box from the moment I stepped off the plane. To round up the weekend it … More 6 spontaneous weeks in the southern hemisphere

Well, where can I start. Turkey was a very interesting country to say the least. From its beautiful rocky-mountains to its extremely warm and blue sea. ETU cup Alanya wasn’t something that I had planned as a back-end season race but when opportunities to race and gain points arise you’d be mad to turn it … More European cup Alanya 2018

A little bit of a bitter sweet weekend over in Penticton. The race was unfortunately cancelled due to wild fires that had spread across British Columbia and in return made the air quality super bad. At one point, it was literally raining ash!! I had prepared well for the race and its unique format and … More SUPERLEAGUE Qualifiers Penticton

7 months into the 2018 season and I was still fighting hard to escape doing the dreaded Olympic distance (OD) triathlon. Yesterday that battle was lost… Unlike other OD races with the standard 1500m swim, 40k bike and a 10k run. The London triathlon had adapted their own twist by shortening the run to 5k. … More AJ Bell London Triathlon

The SuperLeague qualifiers in Poznan will see some of the world best battle it out for 5 golden tickets onto the championship tour. Being a Jersey boy my interest to gain a wild card for the Jersey race was big. This meant I was set to race the qualifiers to try and prove myself to … More SUPERLEAGUE TRIATHLON POZNAN
