Reserve pace runners required for Gold Coast Airport Marathon and Asics Half Marathon

4 WEEKS TO GOLD COAST

I ran in the Hong Kong Marathon back in 1997. The race started on the new Tsing Ma bridge, ventured down a new wiz bang freeway, which was yet to be opened, and finished with 10k on the tarmac of the also soon to be opened, 'new' Hong Kong International Airport.

At this stage of my career I had my warm up routine down pat (pardon the pun). A light 10-15 min jog followed by light stretching then some run-throughs to get some spring in my step. I would always do my run-throughs in a secluded area such as at the rear of a building, removed from all the masses so I could be alone with my thoughts. I would then slip into my super slick racing flats that weighed next to nothing.

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.
