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, […]

With 100’s of early morning starts and 10pm bedtimes, I am nearly there. I have started tapering for the big day on the 16th July. I am feeling extremely unprepared but the […]
I booked my place onto the great north swim on the last day possible. I entered the 2 mile distance on the Sunday. Friday night, I was out enjoying a huge three course meal. I mean I’m talking copious amounts of food! the waiter had to roll me out of the restaurant. I received a […]
As most of you know I ran my first marathon in Paris on the 9th April 2017. It didn’t go to plan and these are the reasons why Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate. Yes there is a point where you can drink too much water, but that should not put you off drinking enough water before and […]
Why on earth am I writing about a pub in the middle of nowhere. Well this is not just any pub… Along with serving the best steak and ale pie, they also host a quiz night every other Wednesday. It is a great night filled with laughter and drinks. That’s not even the best part. […]
