Jason Newbery – Head Triathlon Coach
Jason discovered endurance sport at 25, progressing from a 5:27 marathon debut to a 2:48 personal best before transitioning to triathlon in 2017. He holds a Master’s degree in Applied Exercise Physiology, with his research focused on triathlon performance. His professional experience includes work as a lead physiologist for the Marathon des Sables Heat Acclimation service and advising elite athletes on preparation for hot weather events.
A former secondary school PE teacher, Jason is a British Triathlon Level 2 Personal Coach and UK Athletics Run Coach. He has been coaching professionally since 2018, working with athletes across the full spectrum, from first-time finishers to Ironman World Championship qualifiers. He has guided athletes to Ironman podiums, age-group world championship qualification, and significant personal bests across all distances. As Head Coach at Tri Revolution, he leads a team of specialist coaches while maintaining his own coaching practice.
Known for his patient, supportive approach, Jason is particularly skilled at building confidence in athletes who may not consider themselves natural athletes. He adapts training to fit demanding work schedules and personal circumstances. His athletes consistently highlight his proactive communication, responsiveness, and ability to strike the right balance between challenge and recovery.
Jason’s own journey from novice to competitive age-grouper (sub-9:30 Ironman, sub-4:30 70.3) gives him an intuitive understanding of the challenges his athletes face. His goal is simple: to provide the knowledge, structure, and belief that turns ambitious goals into achieved realities.
