A BIT MORE ABOUT NIC:
I started triathlon way back in Primary School when my learn to swim teacher Dan Atkins noticed I was winning Cross Country and Swimming meets and suggested I take up cycling.
Ever since then I have been in love with the sport. I started Long Course by accident as during Covid there were no other races to prepare for so I thought I might have a crack at Ironman 70.3 Sunshine Coast. Winning Sunshine Coast on debut really changed everything and since then I have been training and racing as a professional.
In my spare time I love playing golf and as an added bonus I also have my AmusA on double bass.
