About Me
runner with something to prove. used to run competitively when 18, running two marathons, winning a couple of local 10ks and a triathlon.Due to a two year pro football career and the odd local league/5 a side match, running took a back burner. In January 2005 I tore my cruciate ligament during a 11 a side match. 6 weeks on crutches I started to run to try to get fit again. My knee was never the same and in march 2006 gave up the football for a while.

in January 2007 I decided to run the Sheffield 1/2 marathon.1hr 59min on a hot may day was a respectable time. In September 07, I ran the Great Yorkshire run 07 in 46mins and realized I loved running in races. In October 2007, I joined Hallamshire Harriers AC and was bitten by the running bug again. My mileage has gone up & my PBs keep coming down.

I have now decided to hang up my football boots and concentrate on my running.
