About Me

Was a sprinter and jumper in my youth (former junior county long jump champion - but only when the really good bloke didn't turn up).

Took up 'proper' running in 2007 as insurance against some unpromising cardio-vascular family history. Got the bug in 2008, and joined Biggleswade Athletic Club. Steadily improved over a few years, but struggle to fit consistent training in with work commitments (long hours and long commute), family life and other interests - and now the lure of ever longer ultras is stronger than working on getting my road PBs down.

2010 brought a disappointing VLM (a first attempt - and lots to learn), club V40 long and triple jump records, and 14th in the UK V40 rankings for triple jump. 2011 was slightly redemptive in bringing a much more enjoyable trail marathon, and an unexpected HM PB. 2012 brought a first (and almost certainly last) race win in the Bedford Clanger trail marathon, and my first ultra. And 2013 saw a sub-24hr 100 miler. 2014 brought another 100 miler - but much tougher, together with some orienteering and running club silverware. 2015 saw a second (and simultaneously last) place at the 133 miles Chiltern Way ultra.

Upped the distance with the GUCR in 2016 and K

-	-	-	-	21.4mi, 4:00:56 Running - Long Run Another run I've been wanting to for ages - Ely to Downham Market, retracing my route to school. Means I've now linked up my substantive childhood and adult homes. Horribly overgrown path on top of the river bank meant running along the edge of the A10 for several miles, which was a bit scary. Otherwise quite a nice route. But very flat.

-	60.8mi, 13:13:00 Running - Race T60 night race. Bit slower than I hoped, but probably what I deserved. Scenery was stunning. Sunset over the dreaming spires of Oxford and sunrise over th Cotswold Water Park. Some good kit learnings for KODR. 65 new zones.

-	-	-	-	-	10.8mi, 1:50:08 Running - General Nice evening run around Broxbourne, Haileybury and some of the surrounding countryside. First run since t60. Left heel a bit niggly, but otherwise all good (except being a bit slow). Up to 14th in the all time CQ explorers league.

Let's hope it doesn't aggravate by Achilles like last time. Add a comment 1.2mi, 8:12 Cross-Training - Rowing - Indoor 2000m ergo row at Theobalds Park. Resistance max Add a comment	0.2mi, 10:00 Cross-Training - Elliptical Strange geometry on this particular machine. Hard work on the buttocks - and somehow it only reckoned I did 300m. Add a comment 0mi, 10:00 Cross-Training - Step Machine 10 minutes of stepping intervals. Add a comment 1.2mi, 8:30 Cross-Training - Rowing - Indoor Another 2000m row. Bit slower than yesterday.
