About Me

Half marathon plodder turned 100 Marathon Club member and ultra runner.

I did at least a half marathon a month between April 2009 and January 2013 when my intended race was cancelled due to the snow. I still do them, although with a bit less OCD, and I have now done over 90 half marathons. I have coped with them while boiled (St Albans, Humber Bridge and Ufdance), drenched (Barns Green and Sussex Beacon - nice weather Sussex!), battered by the wind (Four Villages), both battered by the wind and drenched (Shakespeare), fogged up (St Neots, Seaford), and frozen (Keyworth and Polar Night). After shedding a couple of buckets of lard that I had been carrying around about my person for several years I achieved the elusive sub-2 half marathon in September 2009 and I have been chipping away at this pb ever since, achieving a sub 1:40 at Gosport in 2013. The half marathon has historically been the favoured distance but in recent years I have been focusing on improving my marathon time and getting a GFA time for London and a Boston qualifying time, as well as training hard for the best race ever, Comrades. I have now done 100 marathons and 100 halves.

5km races hurt a bit too much so I mostly volunteer at parkrun - I'm often the timer at Braunstone or Run Director at Leicester Victoria. Race goal for 2018 is a sub 9 Comrades, which I didn't manage in 2014, 15, 16 or 17. I effectively sacrificed it for a sub 3:30 marathon in 2014 but I'm proud of that, so can't complain. In 2014 I also got to run the Boston Marathon, which was ace, and won a prize in the county road race league.

Races that I would like to do, in no particular order: Mont Ventoux Half Marathon, the Blaydon Race, Carthage Marathon, Dubai Marathon, San Sebastian Marathon, Soweto Marathon, Yonkers Marathon.

I designed the chameleon icon. My Comrades #20607 and I'm after a Green Number, having finished this great race 5 times. 2nd on the Marathon Talk podium during Episode #154. Based in Leicester and Nottingham. Teetotal and proud to be vegan.
