This Sunday the Ferriby 10 miler marks a very important milestone for me. To be in a position to have a business I’ve put so much time and passion into be able to sponsor a race that I’ve loved and have ran multiple times… it’s such a honour. I’m grateful to be working alongside my club and to have the opportunity to support a local race in this way.

I’m excited to support all runners on Sunday, but especially excited to be cheering on quite a few runners I now coach. One of whom may threaten to take the course record from me 👀

Good luck to everyone racing- I’ll be cheering you on up that hill!

Running can have it's ups and downs. We've all had them. That's life.

The worst piece of advice I was ever given was to drop carbs from my diet. In doing so, I starved my body from the most reliable and readily available energy source for runners. Placing my body in a desperate position in search of energy, which lead it to draw energy from my spine and pelvis, slowly weakening the bones I had strengthened for 15 years prior.

And the worst decision I ever made was believing I was 'supposed to look" like elite Kenyans in order to run fast. Disregarding my body's natural frame.

Don't do it guys! Take care of yourself

This guy was my first hero in life:

Bret 'the hitman' Hart. I always thought he was the coolest guy in the world 😁.

When I finished my first Marathon In Edinburgh earlier this year (Making the Podium in 2:26🙏), I felt like him coming into the home straight. . .

Minus the coolness, fans, applause, success and recognition 👀😅 . .
. .I did have the shades however 😎

Who was your first childhood hero?

Here’s the guru of running describing some benefits of lactate threshold training- Jack Daniels

If you're confused about it, here's a VERY simple explanation: Its training at a 'comfortably hard' intensity, right at a sweet spot for improving endurance, without excerting yourself too much and risking injury and/or burnout.

Here's a few example sessions you can include in your training (from Beginner to experienced):

-5 x 3 mins (1 min recovery)
-6 x 800m (1 min rec)
-5 x 5k (1 min rec)

-5 x 1 mile (90 seconds rec)
-5 x 2k (90 rec)

-3 x 15 mins (3 min rec)
-2 x 20 mins (5 min rec)

A much needed long weekend in Milan. We got lucky with some beautiful weather and perfect running conditions, as I ran with my wife around the city during her 10k. After several years of injuries she's finally back running and racing pain free 🙌

As we age our Tendons slowly start to lose there stifness (Think of this as losing there 'spring'). Our Achilles Tendon provides us with over 20% of passive (free) energy return when we run. One way we can combat these declines is by incorporating Isometric and plyometric exercises into our weekly routine.

Here's a safe starting point (If you're not injured):

2-3 x per week:

1) 4 x 15 Double leg pogo jumps (start assisted, then progress onto unassisted after 6-8 weeks)

2) 4 x 45 seconds Isometric calf holds with a bent and straight leg. You can start without weight but will need to progress to +70% of your Body weight (long term) for maximal benefits to the Tendon stiffness.

If you are struggling with pain or soreness in these areas, Isometric holds are a great 'pain relief' BEFORE going for a run.

We Love working with Masters Runners. At this point in thier lifes, they're looking for those 1%'s, which help negate 'age related declines'.

Karen, turning 60 next year, is still looking to improve her running. Whether this be her strength work, running style, type of training, recovery, fuelling etc, we're here to help

Running stronger and learning more about yourself isn't just for elite runners!

Honoured to be the first official main sponsor for the Historic Ferriby 10 mile. We’re privileged to be in the position to give back to the local running community and support what is my favourite race. Looking forward to toeing the line next year and seeing you all there!

Strength training for endurance runners has been a hot topic for a while. With much of the research backing the Implemtation of heavy weight training, Olympic lifts and Plyometrics, and it's effectiveness for improving running efficiency over the medium-long term. But before we start throwing around heavy weight, amongst other things, lets first improve the basic movements patterns for strength:

Squat
Hinge
Lunge
Push
Pull
Carry

Here I'm only demonstrating a few easier ones, which don't require much equipment, which many can practise at home (2-3 x per week):

1) Double & Single leg squat
2) Single leg Deadlift & Hip thrust
3) Reverse Lunge
4) Pull up & Banded row
5) Press up
6) Suitcase carry
