Train. Improve. Repeat.
I've been back running for a while now since my Physio signed me off, and all in all it has been great getting back onto the trails and pavement. This has been a good week of running, especially after I discovered that there are showers at work - meaning I can run at lunch times.... Continue Reading →
Where life and my running has been concerned it really has in the last 6 months felt like all I could do is to put one step in front of the other. Last year was up and down with running - but towards the end of the year I was so excited to be back... Continue Reading →
I haven't written in a while quite simply because I felt like I had nothing exciting to say! The year so has been a roller coaster ride life wise, and I felt a real 'can't be bothered' attitude where my running was concerned. Everything that I originally wanted to do just got put in the...

What a week it has been. It was my son's birthday party this week, and we had over 30 people at the house including kids which was awesome but crazy! We survived and I even made the time to make my son a monster truck cake - but I have spent the rest of the... Continue Reading →

I hesitated and to be honest I have not been at all motivated to write the last few weeks with work commitments, general lethargy and actually not even... Continue Reading →
It happens to us all...we work hard, train hard, and push and push - until our body finally kicks back and says STOP. That's been me for the last 5 days - sick with flu and absolutely no training- it sucks! I have a fairly demanding job, life and top that with trying to train... Continue Reading →
I've pushed myself to my limits the last few weeks with a huge work deadline, trying to fit in training and spending time with my family. It has been really tough to be honest. Last week was all consuming and I didn't run bar the Saturday before where I did a park run, and the... Continue Reading →
Ok so this is not my normal kind of post. I generally talk about food or running - but today I am writing about another passion of mine natural products. Ever since my very close friends brother died from cancer back in 2006, and the nurse made it clear that everything we put in and... Continue Reading →
It's been a couple of weeks since I did my trail race before flying to the UK, but I decided I'd best write it up otherwise I would forget. How could I forget though - it was a crazy hot day! I had originally entered to run the 8k race but my friend who was... Continue Reading →
Last week wasn't foreseen. I had to fly back to the UK for a family members funeral. It was a very sad occasion and a whistlestop visit - with 5 nights in total in the UK and 2 in Singapore. My running kit was the first to go into my suitcase. I figured it would... Continue Reading →
