Hello to everyone reading!
It’s been quite a while since I wrote a blog for Runners Tribe and a bit has happened in the meantime. I have spent the majority of 2013 has preparing for a marathon debut, but I have also managed to run PB’s for 1500m, 3km, 10km,...
I arrived at Nice airport and thought that the place looked pretty good. At the time I didn’t know how Monaco would top it. My French is getting there but I don’t think I spoke once the whole car ride into Monaco, I was just looking out the window...
It is hard to believe it is already a year ago that the world turned itself upside down, and life, and training, for the dedicated exercisers, as we knew it changed around the globe.
One key to success and some form of consistency here, was adaptability. Luckily for me being a triathlete, I am already used to the art of cross training and the benefits that can be gained in one area to maintain fitness in another. The cross over can be great for everyone. That said I chose to make running the priority during this period of uncertainty, given its great bang for buck on fitness, consistency, proximity and the pleasure and positive mental boost it gives me over other training sessions. Plus, it was running season, and with a couple of local road races around, it gave me something different to work towards, and to mix things up with the runners in a local triathlete vs runners showdown :)

Like most runners, I have suffered from numerous injuries. I started running at school when I stopped gymnastics and diving, and after running for about ten years, I have suffered from shin splints, fibula fractures, sacral fractures and much more!
Thinking back to my previous blog “break on through”, the season was somewhat of a break through. Maybe not onto the world stage but I did make a slight impact on the Domestic season, although bombing out at nationals I managed to sneak my way up to 4th on...
Just a couple of months ago I was in the US anxiously watching the news every morning to hear Donald Trump’s latest on the Coronavirus situation. “This is not a big deal, it will all pass” turned into “We are facing a global pandemic” and it became evident that the...
