Most of what I write here comes from my own training and events I’ve thrown myself into. It’s not about chasing aesthetics but instead testing limits, building resilience, and finding balance between strength, endurance, and recovery. Some posts are stories from events, others are lessons I’ve picked up along the way. Hopefully somewhere within my experiences and lessons you can find information that may be useful for your own training and wellbeing
Running My First Ultramarathon…Twice
It was a late night discussion somewhere in mid-2020 that prompted me to sign up for my first ultramarathon.
Chatting with a friend, the topic of ultramarathons came up. Within 30 mins of hanging up the call, I’d found an upcoming 75km Ultra from Aldershot to Portsmouth. The ‘Race to Remember’ happens yearly to raise money for army vets suffering from stress disorders. Good cause, good chance to test myself, I’m in!
