Great Britain’s Dave Ellis is currently the World Paratriathlon Champion in the PTVI (Visually Impaired) category, won last year in Rotterdam.

Dave is seeking a fast Guide (or Guides) to assist him in racing some events during 2018 – could you help? Bear in mind, Dave is quick (he ran 15:34 for his 5km split in Rotterdam), and has been guided to European and World Champion by Carl Shaw, a multiple National Championship medal winning athlete in his own right.
