So 2019 has been a very good year for me in terms of running achievements. Closing out the year with PB’s in all 4 of the distances I’ve raced in (and finally ending the PB dry spell in the 10K, which stood since 2015!) This has given me a very good starting point for my […]

This is the first “test” event of the Loxley Lash 5KM which Sheffield Running Club are looking to put on during the Summer months of 2019. A post was made on the running clubs Facebook page, and there was a good level of interest from members. On the morning, the weather seemed ideal, nice and […]
Well, after mentioning going out for a run today here: https://goand.run/calf-injury/ I ventured out. Weather was terrible, but it was great to be out and on my feet again. Took it nice and slow (6m/km) and no issues with any pain in my calf. It still felt a little sore, but was certainly manageable. Went out […]
Well, it’s been a while since I posted on here. Training and racing was going really well, until I tried to change my trainers again. I purchased a brand new pair of On Cloudflyer, because they had an increased amount of rubber on the outside edge of the “clouds” on the sole. Now, initial fit […]
So this was the first training run of 2018, and the start of my training plan for the 2018 Sheffield Half Marathon in April.

Another early start, and a good morning for it. Wasn’t sure how I was going to run this one, but ended up being a decent time again 10th place, and 3 seconds off the last Park Run PB time
Final steady run before Park Run tomorrow Great weather again, even if it was a little windy on the back run down towards Motorpoint.
Great weather today, nice cool breeze taking the edge of the heat. Taking it nice and steady tomorrow, in preparation for the 2 races at the weekend
