!!! Over 10,000 downloads !!!

There are lots of iPhone Apps for Coaches to download, some of them are actually pretty good.

But I could never quite find the app that did what I needed it to do – so I started making my own….

… and in January 2012 I released three Apps via iTunes; a CSS calculator for swimmers, a race modelling calculator for triathletes and a fancy stopwatch with stroke rate function for coaches;

The Ergo Stopwatch for timing laps, monitoring stroke rates and keeping records

The Triathulator App for modelling Triathlon splits and overall goal performances

The Swimulator App for calculating Critical Swim Speed and designing training sets

Not long after creating those apps, I had a few ideas about how to improve the user interface and the functionality, I also got a bit of attention from a few big players, such as British Triathlon, Swim Smooth and Finis, all of whom were interested in helping me to develop my apps for the benefit of their members and customers!

So, with a new found imperative to develop my apps to a higher level of functionality and get them out to a wider audience I developed three more Apps; an all new and improved version of the CSS App, an App for aspiring GB Age Groupers to help them work out whether they can qualify for the European and World Triathlon Championships and last but not least an App to help parents and coaches determine whether young triathletes meet the standards required for selection onto the British Triathlon Regional Academies and Olympic Talent Squad. This batch of Apps are all available with specific versions for iPhone and iPad (more functionality) and they’re called Swimulator+, GB Age Grouper & BTFTalentID respectively (you can click on the links to find them on iTunes.
