University student
Excellent team and knowledge. Was a super fun but highly scientific and specialised bespoke experience. I was put at ease and everything was explained well. It felt fantastic to be helped by these top scientists for me to be able to improve my understanding of my fitness level for competing for the GB age group team for British Triathlon.
