    What Is Belief?

    I think belief is something people need more of in society, many people go about there daily lives and don’t tend to push themselves. It was only last January I was at the National Running Show and Steve Cram was talking, he was saying that he didn’t just become a runner just like that, he […]

  • Now That’s A Challenge

    Now That’s A Challenge

    Things have been difficult for me lately, but that doesn’t mean I’m not up for a challenge. Yes, this challenge is a tough one, it’s to do 100 squats a day, everyday in February all for one amazing charity, Teenage Cancer Trust. I know this will benefit my running too as I’ll develop stronger hamstrings […]

    Be Happy To Run In The Rain

  • What It Really Takes To Run A Marathon

    What It Really Takes To Run A Marathon

    The marathon, it’s no mean feat, 26.2 miles. Ever considered running one? I’ve run two and from my experience they are not easy things to master. I know two people who’ve run the distance, me and my Mum, no one else I know has ever considered running the distance. I’ve ran 2 marathons, one in […]

    Using My Garmin Forerunner 945

    Ever thought about buying the Garmin Forerunner 945? Well, luckily I have one on my wrist all the time so I know everything about the little gadget. You’ve probably guessed already but one thing it does do is tell the time, very accurately too, in fact you can choose from a selection of watch faces […]

    Just BELIEVE

    I ran 4 miles today. I used to run 13 to 15 miles on a Saturday but things have changed since then and now I realise I’m back to basics. I mean, I’m still a runner but I’m a lot slower than I used to be due to having a tough time over lockdown. I […]

  • Why I’ll Always Be A Runner

    Why I’ll Always Be A Runner

    So many people ask “what is a runner?”, “what is a jogger?”. A runner is someone who goes out and put’s their shoes on and runs. There’s no difference between a runner and a jogger, as long as you’re moving towards a finish line then you are a runner. I’m writing this after not running […]

    Heaving Rain Outside, Why Not Go For A Run

    Not many people could go to bed with bad anxiety, get up at 6am and go for a 15 mile in lashing down heavy rain. I’ve just come back from one of the toughest run in my life. When I say tough, I mean mentally tough.

    You’re Not Stuck At Home

    It’s been another strong week in self-isolation, working from home’s going well, we played Who Wants To Be A Millionaire DVD Game last night and we won a million, annoying that it doesn’t print out the money at the end through the DVD player. In terms of exercise I’m feeling the strongest I’ve ever felt, […]
