12 WEEKS TO GOLD COAST

Back in the early days of my running career, whilst living at home with my parents, I would time my run via the clock on the kitchen wall. Once the minute hand passed 12 at 5pm, I would go for my 8km run. When I returned I would arrive at the bottom of the stairs, puffing and dripping with sweat I would sing out to my Mother asking what the time was. I was always searching for a reply such as ' 5.32 and 20 seconds ' or ' 5.33 and 10 seconds ', hoping to of bettered my time from the day before. Unfortunately Mum never caught on to the fact that I was timing my run and the importance that exact time played and I would often be frustrated by the common reply of ' Just after 5.30 '.

Time plays an important part in running for the majority of us. Please click here for complete 12 WEEKS TO GOLD COAST article.

My Involvement in running...

I have been involved in distance running for over twenty years. Starting as a novice and progressing through to International standard. My aim is to help individuals achieve their goals, which I find extremely rewarding and allows me to somewhat share in a very special experience.

Do not limit yourself...

I have no desire to limit myself to a particular standard of runner for I appreciate and respect individuals of all levels. I have been to the school of hard knocks and learnt by my own mistakes and those of others. You will find me approachable in nature and dedicated to the cause.

My philosophy...

My training philosophy is based around the importance of consistency in your training and doing our best to avoid injury and illness along the way.  We are all at a different standard with our fitness and development. Via the natural feel that I have from being involved in the sport for over two decades I believe that I have the ability to steer you from where you presently are to where your goals beckon.
