    I'd love to have discovered triathlon in my teens and early twenties (now 51!). I started training/competing in triathlon 12 yrs ago and it has made a real difference to my fitness and his re-ignited my love of exercising outdoors. It seems for Ruth (and probably most pros..) that leaving full-time work is the single biggest improvement you can make, possibly for any & every sport but particularly triathlon. Good luck, I'll be following your progress!

    Anyone else just distracted by how lovely Ruth's home is. Does she live in an old castle... the Astle Castle?

      @Moises Mohamed thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out now.
      Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

    As with most cases of people become a success in another career it typically stems from having been successful in another sphere which gives you the financial buffer to not have to worry about where the money is coming from. Had she been someone who just worked down the local pub or had a low level office job she wouldn’t have so easily got to the point of being able to turn pro.

    Is it viable for @GTN to hire her as a part timer as i would think she will provide a new angle as a new pro vs former pro.
