    From Volunteering to the World Champs - Claire Williams

    Send a text Welcome to our latest Agegroup Guest Claire Williams, Claire says "I used to swim as a child and continued to do so up until I went to university. At university, swimming and all sports in general went out the window and was replaced with drinking, socialising and general craziness!! With all that came a lot of weight gain. Fast forward a few years and I met my then husband to be and wanted to lose weight for our wedding.  My friend suggested a Chester tri swim session of which I dragged myself to and thoroughly enjoyed. This led to volunteering for the Tri clubs local events. While doing volunteering i saw how much variety in ability there was and for me personally at that time, the various body shapes of the people competing which actually inspired me to give it a go! My first triathlon was in 2013 at Nantwich (UK Triathlon) and i was completely hooked!!! I bought a new (heavy) second hand bike and cheap wetsuit and my next race was booked! From there i've been lucky that we have the fantastic Deva triathlon and Deva divas triathlon on our doorstep, run by our wonderful Chester tri club, so have competed at those multiple times. Where is started to get really interesting is when someone suggested that i could qualify for the age group GB team. i never thought in a millon years that this would be possible or that i stood a chance, but I give it a go to my surprise I qualified for Rotterdam (sprint). After that incredible experience, I was even more inspired to try again and since then have competed at both sprint and standard distances on the Gold Coast, Glasgow and Lausanne. After the Gold Coast, I decided to enter my first competitive 70.3 in Majorca. Having no expectations I went into this a little bit blind and naive. However after the most incredible race I managed to finish in 5.03 And literally handful of seconds behind third place. This lit the fire With regards to 70.3 racing and I felt as though I had a score to settle in Majorca so we headed back after Covid in October 21. Unfortunately, I didn’t quite manage to beat that five hour mark and at the time I was extremely upset but couldn’t figure out Why I was so emotional about it. Fast forward another week and I found out I was actually seven weeks pregnant when I did that race and that was probably why I was feeling so emotional!! And that’s when my life, with regards to triathlon has completely changed. Having a child gives you new perspective and priorities in life and our daughter is always going to be the priority, She is our complete world. That said triathlon is still who we are and what we do and me and my partner continue to train and race as much as we can. Since Having my daughter, I was determined to get back to the routine and structure so entered my first race back which was a local sprint triathlon in which I won my age group which is a nice bonus. This gave me the confidence to push on so with unfinished business at 70.3 I entered Weymouth and Swansea with the intention to qualify for the 70.3 world championships. Luckily, I got that qualification early at Swansea which took the pressure off Weymouth. So that brings us to the present day after competing at the ironman 70.3 world champs in Marbella, which was an insane experience. Unfortunately, due to A mechanical this race didn’t go quite to plan so in terms of performance it was my worst 70.3 that I have ever done but in terms of enjoyment of the race and atmosphere, nothing will come close. `' you can find Clare on social media @ Instagram- @triathloncoachclaire Facebook - Clairewilliams websites - https://optimumhealthcoaching.com/                    https://adaptedlife.co.uk/triathlon-team/ You Can Follow us  on YouTu

    Giving It A Go - How Aidan King qualified for GB Agegroup On Debut

    Send a text Welcome back to AMP, on this episode we find out how Aidan King found himself racing for GB in his Agegroup over in Abu Dhabi in 2026. Aidan Says "Two wheels has always been my life from the age of 5 racing motocross till 17, this came with travelling the UK and pushing myself physically and mentally, and the emotional drain is what ended my MX career as I got to a point where I was putting too much pressure on myself for my own good.  After this, I went to catering college where I trained to be a chef, which has been my career for the last 14 years. I spent a good few years not doing anything sporting, this led to weight gain (not helped by being a chef) and a new lifestyle of tv watching and not doing much.  I took up road cycling with my head chef to get me into a bit of better shape, we were in a similar position and both wanted to better ourselves, this saw me complete my "firsts" as a cyclist (50 mile and 100mile) all for charity and supporting our local work community. 2018 I got knocked off the bike by a car and the road bike was retired as I had no confidence to be in the road. Covid 19 arrives and I was placed in furlough from work, I took up mountain biking which with some friends as we could do this around the rules in place, I went on to race enduro and some stage races before injury ended that, just as I was set to go back to work.  8 months followed where I wasn't cycling and I started to put weight back on, this came as I met someone online who ran a charity who wanted a rider to do LEJOG with them, so I decided to give the road cycling one last go, and this is where it all changed.  From here my cycling became everything, even more so when I split up from my ex-girlfriend. Full focus was on me, and this led to sponsorships and racing road bike time trials nationally for Reflex Nopinz RT. Endurance cycling has always been my enjoyment side, with multiple ultra rides in the bag and charity events such as 24 hour rides and everestings. With a successful year on the bike, some health issues meant being off the bike from August 2025, this is where the running started.  A client I coach wanted to enter Devon Duathlon, so I said to help train her I would enter it also, I had no expectations going into the event, but registered my indent for age group qualification to give me the extra focus to train. My debut duathlon after 8 weeks of running training, it was never going to be a smooth and perfect race but I gave my all - and here we are, planning on how to train and get set to represent GB Age Group in Abu Dhabi in 2026." congratulations on qualifying and thanks for sharing your journey. follow Aidan at AKCoachingfitness.co.uk Insta page is @akcoachingfitness You Can Follow us  on YouTube - AMP GB Instagram @amp_podcast Facebook : Richard Joseph Conway find all our episodes on our website Website is : https://agegroupmultisportpodcast.buzzsprout.com/ email: agegroupmultisportpodcast@gmail.com If you are an agegroup athlete and would like to come on the pod, get in touch.

  3. Mum of 3 to Kona Finisher: How Jo O’Regan Qualified for Team GB

    Mum of 3 to Kona Finisher: How Jo O’Regan Qualified for Team GB

    Send a text This week on the Agegroup Multisport Podcast, we’re joined by the incredible Jo O’Regan—a world-class runner turned Ironman powerhouse with one of the most refreshingly honest journeys in endurance sport. Jo’s story starts on the roads, where she built an elite marathon career: wins at Chester, New Forest, and Edinburgh, podium finishes at Manchester, a top-5 at London, and a blistering 2:40 PB at the 2022 London Marathon. She ran for England and earned an invite to the Kew Gardens Olympic Trials—only for injury to pull the rug out at the peak of her running form. What came next changed everything. Forced to pivot, Jo threw herself into swimming, then cycling, and by late 2021 signed up for her first ever triathlon—Ironman Vitoria-Gasteiz. She didn’t just finish… she came 3rd, qualified for Kona, and caught the Ironman bug hard (despite imposter syndrome, no TT bike, and zero triathlon experience). We dive into the mindset shift from pure runner to all-round triathlete, dealing with setbacks and mechanicals (including a heartbreaking DNF at Roth), and leaning into strengths while owning weaknesses. Jo also shares her unique and fearless approach to swimming, racing long-distance triathlons entirely breaststroke—clocking a 1:14 swim at Outlaw and 1:19 non-wetsuit at Kona. This episode is about resilience, reinvention, and rewriting the rules of what “doing it right” in triathlon really means. If you’ve ever felt like an imposter, struggled with injury, or wondered if it’s too late to pivot—this one’s for you.

  5. Becoming Renata : Episode 137 with GB Agegroup Triathlete Renata Moriconi

    Becoming Renata : Episode 137 with GB Agegroup Triathlete Renata Moriconi

    Send a text From reluctant runner to international age-group athlete, Renata Moriconi’s journey is anything but typical. Renata grew up far from the world of sport—she hated running, never mastered swimming, and left cycling behind in primary school. Yoga was the only activity that stuck, on and off, throughout her early life. Everything changed in 2006 when her car broke down and she bought a second-hand bike, unknowingly setting the first stone on a path she couldn’t yet imagine. Years later, in her early forties, her youngest child’s commitment to competitive swimming, diving, and athletics slowly pulled Renata into an active lifestyle of her own. What started as occasional jogs with other parents quickly turned into something bigger. In 2016 she discovered a local triathlon group at her neighborhood lido—an encounter that transformed her life. Fast-forward to 2024 and 2025: Renata qualified for the Age-Group European Triathlon Championships, raced on the world stage in the AG World Aquathlon in Pontevedra, and competed in the AG European Triathlon in Istanbul. In this podcast, Renata shares the real, unfiltered story behind her late-blooming athletic career. Expect candid conversations about fear, identity, motherhood, beginners’ mindset, community, reinvention, and what it truly means to start—regardless of age or background. Whether you're an aspiring athlete or someone who thinks sport “isn’t for you,” Renata’s journey proves it’s never too late to redefine yourself.
