To re cap. My re-run of the Thames Path section from Henley on Thames to Staines was a distance of 50k (32 miles) and was the run I performed on my 5th day of 8 marathons in 8 days. For those who don't remember, the 5th day was the day after my Dad had major surgery for stomach cancer. In April, when I initially ran I remembered stunning scenery, beautiful trails and great views. However, these memories blurred with the stress and worries of Dads operation. I therefore decided post the 8 marath… Continue

Coventry Way 40 mile Trail Run Needless to say, the past weeks weather gave me some major concerns for an off road trail run that circumnavigates Coventry. On Saturday, the day before the race, the weather was horrendous with torrential rain and strong winds. It didn't look good.... Race morning came and the tring from the alarm got me out of bed quickly. A quick look out of the window confirmed the rain had eased but not stopped. A good breakfast of about 600 cals and 750 ml of electroly… Continue

Chrissie Wellington added another world title to her growing palmares Sunday when she won the the ITU Long Distance Almere, Netherlands, beating home favorite and eventual third-place finisher Yvonne Van Vlereken. Her newest world title will set nicely on Wellington's mantle, next to her 2007 Hawaii Ironman trophy and her 2006 ITU Olympic-distance age group champion trophy.

I'm doing good thanks...nice to hear from you.
I found a physio who has sorted out my bad leg,....a rotated left pelvis, so should be back running very soon.
Have been in the pool x3 a week and kept the biking ticking over, bought myself a black Planet X Stealth in XXS size and it is brilliant! My QR and Specialized are in Small and yet are a bit too big.
Learning to roller ski skating style as well, which is such fun and hope to get to the snow this winter.
Will be looking for your coaching services after Xmas if poss for Barcelona in May and October..assuming the running is OK, will know fairly soon...aiming for a local 10K in Dec.
Enjoy as always your messages.
Take Care
