You’re entering the most important phase of your marathon block 👇

The final 4 weeks are where everything comes together… but also where fatigue, tightness, and ni**les tend to creep in.

This is your window to be proactive — not reactive.

Too many runners wait until race week to think about a massage…
By then, it’s often too late to know how your body will respond.

Instead:
✔️ Try a session in your peak weeks
✔️ See how your body feels on your next run
✔️ Dial in your timing ahead of race day

A well-timed massage can help you feel fresher, move better, and go into race day with confidence.

📅 Peak season is here — availability is already getting tight.
If you’re in your final 4–6 weeks, now’s the time to get booked in.

Or DM me ‘HELP’ if you’re unsure what timing would suit you best

I currently have 46 athletes running the marathon this year 🏃‍♀️

Here’s a quick look at what I’m treating (and yes — I still treat non-runners too 😅)

❌ New injuries
• 11 – Knees (ITB, patellar tendon, bursitis, fat pad, etc.)
• 8 – Calf/Achilles
• 6 – Tibial stress (muscle/tendon, non-fracture)
• 5 – Hip flexor (mostly rec fem)
• 5 – Ankle/foot (plantar fascia, fat pad, tendon, non-fracture)
• 2 – Lower back
• 1 – Gluteal tendinopathy

🤕 Chronic
• 3 – Chronic knee pain (PFPS, OA, meniscus, etc.)
• 2 – MCL sprains
• 2 – Ankle sprains
• 1 – Adductor strain

The second group? Uncontrollable Things like falls, trips, or long-standing issues never sorted

But The first? New injuries, all under 6 months — some just a week old!

And what do they all have in common?
👉 OVERLOAD.
(Not “overuse” — that makes it sound like you shouldn’t use it again!)

What do they have in common now?
✅ A management plan
✅ A strategy
✅ Guidance
✅ Support

As peak week approaches fast, here’s my best advice ⏭️
💤 Prioritise recovery – rest = adaptation.
🏃‍♂️ Don’t chase extra miles – trust your training.
⛽️ Fuel well – nutrition this week sets up race day.

Sound like you? Still struggling? Drop me a message — maybe you’ll be No.47, and we’ll get you to that start line feeling 10x more confident 💪🏽

Recently been treating this legend.
This weekend, he smashed a PB half marathon in 1:21 — but it wasn’t as smooth as it sounds.

Eight weeks ago, Al came to me with a nasty case of shin stress caused by a rapid increase in mileage. He’d been managing it for four months before seeing me — it was painful even to walk, let alone run.

Although this type of injury is common, if not treated properly, it can easily put your running on hold.

So here’s what we did with Al 👇

First, we stripped it all back — reduced mileage, lowered intensity — but didn’t stop completely. We found a comfortable pace that caused minimal pain and used that as our baseline.

We ran a series of functional tests, set up the initial rehab phase, and got to work.
After two weeks, pain had significantly reduced.

From there, we began to increase the pace — progressing from a relaxed 6:00 to around 5:20 per kilometre. Testing results showed huge improvements — proof that he was putting in the work, building robustness, and increasing tolerance to load. We matched that by progressing his rehab program.

Eventually, we hit a bit of a plateau — which is totally normal in any rehab journey.
We sat down, talked it through, made a plan, and got back on track. Sometimes a bit of reflection together can reveal the simple things we’ve overlooked.

After another solid two weeks, we entered a focused four-week block dedicated to building pace for race day. Mileage remained consistent throughout.

And guess what? He absolutely smashed it.

When the hard work pays off, there’s honestly nothing better.

Ankle sprains are incredibly common — about 1 in 5 people will experience one at some point. What’s more, up to 40% of those individuals go on to have recurrent sprains or chronic ankle instability.

That’s why proper assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation are absolutely essential.
Skipping steps or rushing recovery only increases the risk of long-term weakness, instability, and re-injury.

Take your time. Rebuild strength, balance, and mobility the right way.
Because when it comes to ankle sprains — you can’t cheat the process.
