Tim Johns
Assistant Coach
Background
- Member of MTC for 6 years.
- BTA Level 2 Coach (2007)
- I am working towards the BTA Level 2 qualification in March 2007; I am currently assistant swim coach at the Tuesday swim session at Moss Side. I've also previously assisted at the Wednesday night track session.
- Competing in triathlon since...2000 (Boundary Breeze)
- Reason for starting triathlon...Always wanted to have a go; I come from an Athletics background (hurdles & long jump) & all through my twenties threatened to give Triathlon a try; then finally did Boundary Breeze in 2000 at age 32! Everyone said I'd catch the 'bug' - well I guess they were right.
- Best moments in triathlon...Racing at Dambuster 07 & qualifying for the World Triathlon Champs for my Age Group in Hamburg 07 & Vancouver 08. Finishing in the top 10 (G age group) at the National Age Group Triathlon Champs in Liverpool (2004)
- Worst moment in triathlon...being disqualified at the same Championship race in Wakefield (2006)
