A bit more about me...
- Occupation
Financial Accountant
- Favourite distance
Half Marathon
- Favourite race (and why)
Wokingham half marathon – fast and very competetive
- My pet hate in running...
Ipods during well supported races – take in the atmosphere people!!
- What I love most about running...
Doesn't matter how stressed I get at work – after going for a run I feel back to normal.
- My best piece of running advice...
Control yourself for the first mile, you'll appreciate it later in the run. Also don't shy away from interval training – it might be horrible but it significantly benefits every level of runner
- Why you should follow me as a pacer...
I'm encouraging and accurate when it comes to pace. 3 out of 4 of my last major marathons I've run negative splits with my pace being extremely consistent until speeding up over the last 10k.
- No one knows that I...
up until 5 years ago I was a heavy smoker.
