Mark laid out a 16 week plan which personally I found outstanding. <br>Every detail was covered and nothing was too complicated or difficult to achieve. As soon as I sat down and had a chat with Mark I knew he was the right person to take on the challenge of getting me over the line. <br>We had a few hiccups on the way with my knee deciding to pack up but the plan and sessions were adjusted to meet my new requirements. Nothing was a problem here for Mark due to his knowledge in the sport. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Communication was excellent from Mark and he always gave me sound advice and put my mind at rest with any worries or concerns I had along the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am proud to say I achieved my goal of completing ironman Wales and if it wasn&#8217;t for my training plan and coach I don&#8217;t think this would have been possible. <br>So if anyone is considering using Aspire 2 Tri for whatever event they have in mind then don&#8217;t hesitate because you won&#8217;t be disappointed.<br>                                                  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a quick review of my recent coaching plan from Mark Evans at Aspire 2 Tri.
