Thank you for visiting this website. After many years developing Benson's Running & Triathlon
into the largest running and triathlon business in Australia, coaching too many elite and age
group athletes to awards and personal best performances to list and transitioning tri/athlete
such as Andy Sleeman (Tribal), Ollie Allen (Tri-Alliance) and Sean Foster (Fluid Movements)
from athlete to coach I have now moved to new challenges. One thing from the past remains
- the love of helping committed people achieve results that seemed impossible when they
arrived at their first training session.
