For 2010 Tarek has identified Ironman France as a first foray into long-distance triathlon. This is following on from a successful first season racing at Olympic and middle distance in 2009. He completed the Montauk 'Mighty Man' middle distance triathlon in New York last October, after taking up the sport of triathlon earlier in the year. Tarek has made a swift progression from naturally talented endurance runner into triathlete within the space of just 6 months. He has been able to successfully combine his love of training with long hours working full time. Tarek is flexible in his approach and has made creative use of training facilities within easy reach of work and home to utilise any available training time for maximum benefit. His favourite session without a doubt is an off road run around Richmond Park!
Tarek is writing a very entertaining blog about his personal Ironman journey, you can find it here:
