My Why?

I quite simply love to run, want to help you discover a passion for the sport, and of course help you hit your goals.

​

I know what it's like to tackle anxiety and fear around ability. Taking on something new, trying to achieve the impossible, as well as overcoming major injuries and mental health issues.

​

In 2018, I broke my leg in three places and dislocated my ankle.

After 9 pins, a metal plate and a long, tough comeback, I won my first race back. Being able to run again was a huge victory.

Favourite Distance:

I love a ParkRun & anything on a trail!

My Why?

I got into the sport to travel the world and run marathons in new locations for the “fun” of it. I finished my first in America and I caught the running bug. 

Although I still aim to have fun in the sport, my goals now are sightly different. I have the aim of trying to gain qualification to represent my country at either the marathon or ultra marathon distance. 

Regardless of whether I achieve that, as the poem Song of the Ungirt Runners goes “I run because I like it through this broad bright land.”
