ABOUT

Hello :)

My name is Charlie Harding,

I am a Sport and Exercise Scientist and British Triathlon qualified Group and Personal Coach.

 

I have guided at the Commonwealth and Paralympic Games and was a member of the British Triathlon World Class Programme from 2022-2025.

​

I am currently an elite athlete racing World triathlon events always looking to improve my performance, refine my technique and achieve new results.

​

Although I am only 22 years old I have been competing in this sport for 15 years now training 20-25 hours per week. Everything I have done has been dedicated to understanding and learning more about endurance sport. I have conducted sub maximal and maximal oxygen uptake tests on triathletes and runners as well as researching cardio respiratory and metabolic responses in athletes. I have coached in multiple squads including, Manchester Triathlon Club, North West Triathlon Academy, Altrincham Performance Squad and Nottingham University Triathlon Squad. ​

​

A Train Smart coached athlete will be coached to the highest level, incorporating skills I have acquired over a decade to help you achieve your goals in the most efficient way possible.
