He will take part in the 2014 Edmonton ITU Sprint Distance Triathlon World Championships having earlier this year won the men’s senior race in his age group at Olympic venue Eton Dorney and coming third overall. 

Kev, pictured, a sports therapist with Championship football club Reading, also runs Kev Tonner Sports Injury Clinic in Old Town. 

He said: “It is fantastic to work with a great local business such as redheadPR throughout this venture. Qualifying for the World Championships was fantastic and the response I’ve had since has been overwhelming. As well as representing Great Britain, I am representing Swindon, my hometown.”

He is an inspirational and high-performance athlete the whole town should be proud of. redheadPR has a proud history of working with sport and health clients, so it's natural for us to be supporting Kev.”
