Who inspires you and why
My younger brother Fergus inspires me. He is aiming to qualify for the junior world triathlon championships this year and despite all his training/school commitments he always makes time to go out mountain biking with me when I go home.
How do you celebrate/relax after a big event
Most of my races are on a Sunday and by the time I have driven back home there is not much time to celebrate before work at 7 am on Monday morning! When I get the chance though, I like to relax with a takeaway and a film with my friends or my boyfriend.
