Our coaches
The club has a number of experienced and qualified coaches, who run the majority of the club training sessions. See the training calendar for details.
Jon Horsman
Head Coach
Jon started his coaching career nearly 20 years ago in the swimming world, coaching swimmers to County and National finals. During this time Jon progressed into triathlon both as a competitor and coach, attaining BTA Level 3 Club Coach.
His first triathlon was in London in 1998 and has since raced up to Half Distance IM and achieved GB age group qualification for Sprint and Olympic distances.
Jon has been Head Coach of CPT for 12 years for both the adult and junior sections of the Club and has seen membership rise from 40 members in 2000 to well over 200 currently. He is happy coaching novices through to GB age groupers and one of his major strengths is making sure everyone gets the best out of the training session, whatever their ability.
Jon was awarded London Region Triathlon Junior Coach of the year in 2010 and 2011 and is currently lead coach for the junior London Talent Squad.
Jon also works for the London Region as a Club Mentor, Tutor and Assessor for the BTF in Level 1 and 2 coaching awards.

Brian Morris
Having competed in the first London Triathlon in 1984 and been a member of the club almost since its inception I thought it was a good time to take a step into the world of coaching. I hope I can pass on some of my skills and experience to members of both senior and junior sections of the club.
I have taken part in various events including Ironman and my daughter Abi is an active member of the junior section.
Harry Horsman
Harry has been a member of CPT since 2007 which has seen him progress through our wonderful junior club and into our adult section!
With over half a lifetime of triathlon knowledge, if you come down to a session coached by Harry, you know you’re in very capable hands and are in for a great evening of entertainment!
Emma Dodds
Emma is one of CPT’s newer coaches on the scene but that doesn’t mean she lacks experience oh no!
Emma usually leads our run session on Wednesdays and our members just love her positive energy! From basic running elements of posture and arm driving to focussing on your foot striking and cadence, Emma will be there to give you the guidance you need!
