About Me
Started running seriously in 2006. Life-changing experiences and all that. Bagged a sub-3 marathon at the 4th attempt, then set PBs in 2009 for most distances. Not managed to hit those heights recently due to too much work, life stuff, weight gain, age and dabbling in triathlon. Targets are: Marathon: 2:49:59 Half: 79:59 10 miles: 59:59 10k 36:59 5 miles: 29:59 5k: 17:59 1 mile: 4:59 WAVA: 80% Show More...
