Born and bred Dunedin boy. Nick grew up playing Cricket, Rugby and Basketball. At Uni he studied Sports science and did a post grad nutrition study. He started focussing on triathlon and from there turned his attention on long distance running, a very long distance. People talk about getting the running bug, Nick took that to a whole new level. He did his 1st of 2nd Ironmans at 21. From there took the challenge to complete multiple 80km running races and moved on to a 100km running race. When it isn’t running, it is enduro mountain bike racing.
Nick has been working for GO Healthy for the past few years “NZ’s no 1 natural health company, plug:)
He still spends a lot of his free time on mountain biking and he loves a few craft beers so he will fit right in.
Nick turned to CrossFit, intially for a change of pace and to get stronger. He hasn’t done a lot of strength training since interning as High Performance Sport NZ in S&C.
“My main goals for getting involved with CrossFit was strength but after having experienced the fantastic atmosphere at the gym I decided this is the right place for me. I really enjoy the constant challenge and the awesome community”.
