First off all, I apologise for taking so long to write another blog. I have been extremely busy with work, sitting exams and of course training. So, today I am going to tell you about what I have been doing the past few months, what I’m doing now and where I plan to be in […]
The last year was an incredible year for me, but I can tell you now 2018 is going to be bigger and better! Since joining ASICS FrontRunner I have noticed how much there is still yet to learn about running or even triathlon for that matter. Being part of a team that has a wide […]
Chemotherapy is a wonderful but horrible thing at the same time. I owe it my life but it also nearly took my life away from me. One of the side effects you don’t often hear about it the damage it can do to your reproductive organs. Since the chemotherapy is so strong it often affects […]
Two years ago today was one of the best moments of my life. I was in one of the worse conditions both mentally and physically but the 24th November was the start of my new life, it was time to get back to reality. I was discharged from hospital and had finished my last cycle […]
What were your symptoms? How did you get fit? And, where did you start? are the top questions I get asked. So, where did I start? How did I manage to go from struggling to walk up steps to being able to complete an Ironman? I started off with tiny challenges. I would try and […]

Just to warn you, this is going to be a hard read but after speaking to more and more people, I have noticed it’s something everyone should talk about more. People shouldn’t feel scared of speaking their mind and talking about their problems. If you know me well, you will know I’m basically the happiest […]
The ASICS FrontRunner project has been a blessing in disguise. I applied online over 4 months ago to join the team, and I was lucky enough to be selected along with about 30 others. Over 5000 people applied and I really didn’t think I would be picked. The team is made up of a wide […]
The most frequently asked question since I’ve completed the Ironman is what is next? After training for months and months for one day, I did wonder what would come next. I thought I’d either have to carry on training because I didn’t finish, or I would feel so depressed because something I had worked for, […]
I have just crossed the line after a 13 hour race. I am crying like a baby, reflecting on what I had just achieved. I had only gone and bloody completed an Ironman. I was greeted by a medal round my neck and and the sense of accomplishment. No one believed I could do it, […]
