The first session was land training with Rob Norman, who is Adam's gym coach.

The next was based around the mental side of racing.

And the third session - probably the most exciting for Harry - was in the swimming pool where he trained for 45 minutes with Adam‘s swim partner, Ed Baxter.

At Tokyo 2020 earlier tjis year, multi-medal winning Adam took home two golds and a silver to add to his collection.
