Steve, the first person ever to complete Gymxtc – what are your thoughts on it? |
Yeah, excellent Challenge. I really enjoyed it. I was hoping to a little bit quicker, as I have done an 18: 25 in training, but it’s all about what you do on the day. So hopefully next time I will beat my personal best.

How is your training in the gym? Do you think Gymxtc is motivating you? |
Yes, very much so – definitely. My main focus now for training in the gym is X Training and the events leading up to it. It’s great training for each event and like I said keeps me motivated. |

Who do you look up to in the sport? |
My main training influence at the moment is Ben Stroud, he is local to me and I used to work with him but we lost contact a few years ago, but then we bumped into each other at last years Hampshire X Mas Cracker and after met up with him again where we have trained s few times. He’s really helped me with my training and helped keep focused.
At the Hampshire too (which was my first event) I was impressed with Sam’s time (Sam Orgee) and Jason’s time (Jason King) |

| Still focused and halfway round. |

| Being new to the sport have you heard of Hywel ? |
Yes, being new to the sport I have heard of him. He is a living legend and I hope he comes back to the sport; just to see him compete would be really exciting. |
