Rhys Jones

RUNNING & TRIATHLON COACH

Rhys’ coaching is built on clear communication, practical planning and helping athletes develop habits that make consistent training possible. He takes time to understand each athlete’s training history, mindset and everyday commitments, including the mental and emotional side of pursuing a goal.

Through weekly video calls and collaborative planning, he helps athletes shape their season, adapt around life and work towards longer-term goals. His approach values repeatable training weeks and the supporting work that helps progress last.

He helps athletes understand the purpose behind their training, building confidence in the process and an appreciation for the small, consistent actions that lead to improvement.

Alongside his coaching, Rhys brings over 12 years of endurance racing experience, including qualification for the Olympic Distance, Ironman 70.3 and Ironman World Championships.
