Ian Allen
From an early age sport has always interest Ian. In his early years traditional sports such as football and tennis always provided great enjoyment and pleasure. During school years this interest grew as the opportunity to learn about sport presented itself in the form of a G.C.S.E and A-Level. Going onto Sheffield Hallam University he studied Sport and Exercise Science and was a prominent member of the University Rowing Club, being awarded Club Colours and University Blues for his contribution of the Club and results at National Competition respectively.
Ian now works for the University as a Qualified Fitness Instructor delivering fitness programmes and initiatives to others in the hope they too can be as passionate about sport and fitness as he is. Further to this he is a member of Nottingham Rowing Club and competes once again at National competition against some of the best crews outside the International arena.
Having always had a pedigree for competition and willingness to achieve it was with great excitement that when the offer came of a seat in a potential record breaking four he took it, not realising the multitude of the event that that four was to enter.
