Interview: Joe Skipper on his Marshman win and targeting Ironman UK 70.3
Fresh from smashing the field at Marshman, the first middle distance UK tri of the year, is Joe Skipper - a National Middle Distance champion.
I caught up with this ambitious triathlete who has already won Marshman, came 6th at the recent Tristar Cannes and has just returned from a brutal training camp with former Outlaw winner Paul Hawkins. This guy likes to train hard.
In this interview, Joe speaks about a very good 3 weeks in his career and how he hopes this will prove a spring board for top performances in some of Britain’s biggest long distance races.
