My story

Hey there.   My name is Mark Georgeson and welcome to my site.  The very short version of this story is that following a bike accident in 2018 resulting in a broken back, neck, pelvic bleed and brain injury and subsequent medical retirement from my job, I have been on a bit of a journey of recovery and would love to tell you my story.  

The purpose of this site is to tell you a wee bit about myself before the accident, a bit about the accident (although not too much!), take you through my rehabilitation so far and what I’ve learnt, and document progress as the journey continues. Oh and tell you about some new plans I have to get back to fitness (see the name of the website!) The problem/benefit of having crazy friends….I’ll let you decide;)

Essentially this a story of hope and if you find one thing in my story that helps you through your own difficult moment in life or inspires you to go on your own personal quest to build a better quality of life I would be delighted:)! Please get in touch(although I wouldn’t recommend trying too hard to get knocked off your bike by a van at 50mph!) There are easier ways to progress on your journey.

I have found that the people around you are amazing and the people you meet on the way generally have your best interests at heart. So stay positive:)

I have decided to raise money this year for two of the charities that have helped me in my recovery. You can read more about the events I am entering on the blog page and donate at the button below. Any donations will be most gratefully received.

IC2C Coaching

IC2CC will offer an athlete centred approach to coaching, designed to maximise your performance and enjoyment in triathlon and running whilst keeping your life as balanced as possible. Our coaching philosophy is very person centred. Our job as coaches is to understand what the persons goals and objectives are going forward, and adapt a training plan that will help them achieve this.  

Experienced athletes are likely to have very focused performance goals for races, less experienced athletes are just discovering a new sport and everything in between.  As coach’s we can help you navigate this exciting challenge and incorporate things into a sustainable life.  With the person centred approach you must take ownership and drive things forward.  We’ll ask lots of questions and help you plan something that works to help you achieve your goals.  Every single athlete is different across all aspects of the sport. There is some generic stuff that remains consistent across everyone, but there will be many variations to consider.  And we would like to make engaging in the process a fun experience :)

Having coached for 17 years in a club environment, and competed in races from my first sprint triathlon in Perth, WA in 2008 to Celtman in 2025, I’ve decided to start this business to offer 121 coaching from my own knowledge and experience. I know how much triathlon has brought to my life, including the recovery from my accident, and I’d love to help other people experience it.
