NICKNAME:
Smitty
LIVES:
Geelong
I always loved watching my Dad do triathlons when I was a kid, he was involved with Geelong Tri Club in the 90’s. I played footy but did the odd tri over summer to keep fit. I always had a goal to do Noosa tri and an Ironman.
After Noosa in 2017, it was time to join BRT and chase the Ironman dream!! Ironman is addictive and I love how it’s more about the journey than the race itself. I’ve got 3 little kids and an amazing wife who supports me always. The Ironman goal and journey helps me stay mentally fit more than physically and that’s the most important part.
THOUGHTS ON BECKWORTH RACING
Beckworth Racing makes triathlon feel more like a team sport than an individual sport. The coaches are professional and are enthusiastic to support all athletes goals and specific needs. The Beckworth Racing culture is something Adam and all members and supporters should be extremely proud of.
