Committee

Heya, I’m Rosie! I’m a second year DPhil Student in Chemistry. I joined OUTriC two years ago, as another product of the classic rower—> triathlete conveyor belt, and absolutely loved getting stuck into training with such an awesome group of people. With a clean sweep of wins at Varsity duathlon and ⅚ at the triathlon last year, I can’t wait to see what our club can do this season and I’m looking forward to leading our club on to more wins! Feel free to drop me any questions via email or come say hi at training!

Hey, I'm Katie, a third year DPhil in Physics! Joining OUTriC has easily been the best decision of my DPhil - I've made so many incredible friends here and really feel like part of the community. I've fallen in love with triathlon, having never done it before joining! Training for three sports is super fun and gives your week so much more variety than just doing one (although cycling is the best). I'm the Secretary this year to give back to the club which I've got so much from! Can't wait to help get others into tri so if you have any questions please feel free to contact me!

Hey, I’m Luke, a fourth-year engineering student at Teddy Hall. I come from a running, swimming and mountain biking background and though I used to be an MTB purist I have since taken up road biking. For me the club serves as a great escape to enjoy the Oxfordshire countryside and keep active, whilst meeting lots of really lovely people. If you have any questions feel free to get in touch or come and find me at one of the sessions!

A big Dark Blue Hello from me, Dot, the incoming OUTriC Women’s President. I am a 3rd year DPhil in Clinical Medicine. Like many others, I have come over to the dark side, from rowing and modern pentathlon at Cambridge, with a few years interlude to practice Veterinary medicine in between. I joined OUTriC 2 years ago, and the club has been integral in shaping my Oxford experience- both the highs and the lows! I’m really excited to work with our new Head Coach in the upcoming season to help support our individual athletes and the team as a whole to achieve our hopes, dreams, and sporting goals.

Any questions, feel free to reach out at dorottya.nagy@ndm.ox.ac.uk!

Hey, I’m Zara and I’m a Law finalist at Catz! I joined OUTriC as a fresher as basically a complete beginner in triathlon so I know how intimidating this sport can be which is why I signed up to be Novice and Welfare Officer. OUTriC truly is open to everyone no matter your age or ability and I can’t wait to meet all the new members. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if you just want some company before going to a session!

Hey everyone, I’m Tom, the kit rep for this year! I’ve been part of the club for three years and joining has definitely been one of my best life choices so far at Oxford - the club is full of fun, enthusiastic and encouraging people! When I’m not out and about doing tri-things, I can be found thinking about fluid mechanics for my PhD. Kit is arguably the fourth discipline in triathlon and I’m always open to new kit ideas, so if you have any specific kit you would like the club to look into just message or email me.

Hi! I’m Zoe, and I’m one of the Social Secretaries this year. When I joined OUTriC three years ago I was pretty new to triathlon, having mostly come from a running background, and I fell in love with both the sport and the club! I also play Aussie rules football, and I’m a bit notorious for recruiting newbies into both of my sports. I’m always happy to answer questions, so come say hi to me at training or email me at:

Hey, I'm Oscar - this year's web officer! I've been a member for two years now, having also retired from rowing much like a lot of our club members.

I’m responsible for the social media and this website! If you’re interested in joining OUTriC - I’ll also respond from our socials and help guide you to the right place.

If you have anything you’d like me to share, get in touch! I can also usually be found at the club training sessions :)
