‘Gemma has put me on a health kick!’

-

I SET MY ALARM FOR 4.30AM. MY JOB HOSTING THE BREAKFAST SHOW ON HITS! RADIO means I’m up at the crack of dawn. I like getting in early, because I’m Gethin with radio a bit of a nerd, so I’ll get ready and cycle co-hosts Gemma

Atkinson and in and get there around 5am.

Comedy Dave I GO ON AIR AT 6AM, alongside Gemma Atkinson and “Comedy Dave” Vitty. I love doing the show, it’s such a laugh. We finish up around 10am and we’ll have a debrief after. I have an early lunch at 11ish. I’m on a health kick, thanks to Gemma, so I’ll have an egg-based lunch, like eggs, salmon and avocado. I’M CURRENTLY TRAINING FOR A TRIATHLON, so I go to the gym in the early afternoon for an hour. The race is in September and I don’t want to be under-prepared, so I’m pushing myself. I’LL HAVE MEETINGS OR EVENTS IN THE AFTERNOON – often in London so, as I’m based in Manchester, I’ll have to hop on a train. I usually have a nap while travelling as my body clock can get a bit messed up. I LOVE A BLACK TIE EVENT. Last week, I hosted the UK Jewellery Awards, which were a lot of fun. But with my early mornings, I do appreciate a chilled evening. I like cooking chicken or fish and veg for dinner and I’m addicted to Suits at the moment, and the World Cup of course! I’ll watch a bit of TV then go to bed at 9pm.

We spoke to Gethin at charity golf tournament, Celebrity Cup at Celtic Manor Resort, see www.celtic-manor.com. Listen to Hits Radio Breakfast with Gethin, Gemma and Dave, weekdays 6-10am, Hitsradio.co.uk
