2010 FINN WORLD CHAMPION
Hi there, I’m Ed Wright glad to see you here
About me
Relentless determination and unquestioned abilities have brought Ed Wright further than
he had ever dreamt. Winning the World Championships in 2010 has satisfied his appetite
for now but has left him craving more! The Olympic Journey to Gold !
Wright started sailing from the very young age of four, when he first took to the water in
Nottingham for a fun blast with his father in his 505. With the initial shock of the speed and
water rushing by he knew it was for him and has never looked back. He started
competitive sailing soon after and, fortunately living close to the water, was able to
accelerate his skill. He was soon selected as a integral member of the British Sailing Team
to sail for Great Britain which laid the pathway to his successful sailing career.
Studying at Bournemouth University gave him a great opportunity to sail from Weymouth
Sailing Academy, the 2012 Olympic venue and British sailing base, where he trained hard
throughout his youth.
After a few years at the top of the Laser Class, he moved forward to the Finn Class, a boat
that rewards Wright’s physical abilities and technical knowledge. He quickly showed form only a year into his Finn career gaining Bronze at the 2006 Finn World Championships
before moving onto greater successes. Enormous focus and motivation towards all
aspect from fitness to development have all contributed to Ed Wright's career highlights of winning the European and World Championships and the ISAF World Cup.
It was a spectacular year for Ed in 2010. Starting with two ISAF World Cup wins in Miami
and Palma ; followed by gold at the Finn Gold Cup in San Francisco. In recognition of his
outstanding performances in 2010, he was nominated for the ISAF Rolex World Sailor
Award . Ed followed this nomination with the British Olympic Association's Athlete of the
Year Award, a perfect ending to a Champagne year !

YOUR METABOLIC IQ
Just like our character and personality, our metabolism also has individual characteristics. Although we can all eat the same things, still our nutrition won’t be the same – these two concepts differ significantly. We usually know blood group; how about the metabolism? Foods recommended on the basis of blood groups is not always consistent with their metabolic type – it does not fit our METABOLIC IQ. Often we do dozens of allergy, food, on any kind of intolerance tests, and yet when the body is fed with poorly chosen fuel, it begins to react with aggression on any factor
What ED says about Metabolic IQ
“I find eating correctly gives me the energy to go that extra mile. This test proves that everyone is different and our body’s needs are too. I wasn’t surprised about the results though.”
