I started using Edge to give me a deeper insight into my current health levels and how this translates into both sport and my general wellbeing.

Rachel started running in 2012 in a bid to improve her lifestyle. As an inactive teenager getting started was incredibly hard, however it wasn’t long before she caught the bug. Once she left university she found triathlon as she was already cycling and running. For the first couple of years she didn’t follow any structured training but in 2018 enlisted the help of a coach to complete her first Ironman.

Rachel started training in the summer of 2018 and by autumn came second in her age group at Ironman Wales. The following year she won her age group at Ironman Lanzarote and went on to compete at the Ironman World Championships. In 2019 she came first in age group at the Vitruvian Middle Distance triathlon, qualifying for a GB Age Group slot for 2022 in middle distance. In 2018 she came 3rd overall female at the Southampton Marathon.

Rachel is using our Female Triathlete test to learn more about her hormones, key biomarkers and how this can help monitor her health and training load.

As Rachel says, “I started using Edge to give me a deeper insight into my current health levels and how this translates into both sport and my general wellbeing. The Female Triathlete test has helped me identify where I have deficiencies and I look forward to continuing with regular testing to be able to track the improvements in these.”

Edge has allowed me to regularly and easily keep a check of my iron levels, which is something I was struggling to do before without trips to the hospital. This means I can stop levels from becoming dangerously high, which is not only bad for my performance but also my health. It also means I can plan when to give blood to bring my levels back down, which obviously also has a negative effect on performance. Being able to plan these in for the off-season and away from racing was vital for me, and continues to be with the new challenges that I am undertaking with GTN.

As a professional athlete it’s very important to me to keep regular tabs on my blood markers. Sometimes you need to find out as quickly as possible the reason why you might be under performing in training and racing, and what you can do to solve it. Edge offer a very quick and convenient service and translates the results into numbers we can all understand all for an affordable price.

I've been using Edge throughout my race season and it has been extremely helpful in identifying where there are deficiencies and where we can make potential performance improvements. The ease of the home testing kits just makes things so much better. It means we can keep track of all the key biomarkers every month, with quick results.
