- Fuelled by Herb Valley
Scott Green, 35 of Balhannah, South Australia was named the 2005 MALE TRIATHLETE OF THE YEAR IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA.
Herb Valley proudly support Scott in his endeavours and recently we had the opportunity to speak with Scott and find out …just what makes a Champion!
What is your profession?
My “fun profession” is as a Triathlete…however… the “profession that pays most of the bills” is as Sports editor at The Courier newspaper.
How long have you raced as a professional?
I first gained a professional license in 2002, after a high finish in my first Australian Iron man championships as an amateur. I have now completed 9 ultra distance races, including the Hawaii, Korea and Switzerland Iron man events. These comprise a 3.8km run, 180km cycle, 42.2km run – all in about 9 hours. I am fuelled by Herb Valley supplements.
What would you say are your career highlights so far?
My triathlon career has reached new personal heights in the past two years, earning the title of ‘South Australian male triathlete of the year’. I won almost every race I contested in 2004/05, including State titles for the Olympic distance and sprint distance triathlons and long and short course duathlons. That form has continued into this summer, retaining the sprint triathlon and long course duathlon titles, as well as adding the SA long course triathlon crown. I have a healthy lead in the SA elite season point score for 2005/06 and my goal is to earn back-to-back ‘SA Triathlete of the Year’ titles. Further afield, I battled scorching conditions – aswell as a bike ride up one side of a volcano and down the other – to place fifth at Iron man Korea late last year.
Why do you use Herb Valley products?
Herb Valley’s high quality dietary supplements enable me to maintain my training at the intensity needed to compete at the highest level. They allow me to combine the 200km training rides and 30km runs needed for Iron man training, with the high intensity sessions necessary for sprint racing. Multivitamins, Zinc and Echinacea also help with the tightrope walk between pushing my body hard and avoiding illness.
In addition, they help deal with the stress of fitting in up to 30 hours of training a week with a full-time job (35-38 hours).
I grow a lot of my own fruit and vegetables, but even then my regular diet cannot provide all the nutrition I need to sustain peak performance.”
Herb Valley proudly supports Australians of all ages and we are excited to be an integral component of Scott Green’s winning formula!
Well done Scott!
