Bio

Nathan Jay started Nippers at Wanda SLSC, where he trained and competed for until the U19s, when he won the NSW State U19 Ironman title. Following a brief stint at Cronulla SLSC, Jay moved north to the Gold Coast to join the Burleigh Heads Mowbray Park crew. Growing up he played multiple sports, such as rugby league, union, and Oztag, but chose Iron racing due to the love for the sport.
