Some way to defeat the man flu 😷🤝

Not in the heavyweight running division, cruiser weight it is 💪🏻 (pink n yellow to hide the black run toe)

Morning race protocol rarely misses 🎯

One week to go ⏳🤩

The 5K Project starts next Monday 🗓️

I’ve created this for people who want to see a real return for the effort they put in out on the roads and in the gym.

It’s for people who want to make a breakthrough with their running without giving up strength training.

People who want to see progress but don’t have the time to train like a full-time athlete.

Six weeks of easy-to-follow structure to your weeks

Three purposeful runs per week.

Strength training in the gym or at your home.

Nutrition for performance, not starvation.

Coaching from yours truly, plus accountability from a group full of like-minded people.

We start with a 5K, putting a marker in the sand.

Six weeks later, we uncover what you’re truly capable of with some of top quality training behind you.

Secure your space now for just £59.

If you can already run 5K and want to get faster, DM me “5K”, and I’ll send you everything you need to know

We’ve been cooking 🧑‍🍳 but not at the start 🥴 😅

Thought I did a sub 2 in my first effort, turns out I wouldn’t have hit it… crazy how much has changed

How did I think the socks and compressions was a good look!?

Probably my proudest finish in a race 🥹

The allusive bad boy. Smashed up!

Quest to become the fastest ever Cliffe at a half ✅ 😂

The most painful one of the lot, in the hole after 2km, still carry the scars 🥴

It was definitely the wind 💨 😅

The best part 🙏🏻💙

We’re just getting started, starting with finishing this year with a bang mofo’s 🤝

You’ve lost count of how many times you’ve missed; that 5km PB is nowhere to be seen

So naturally, you assume you need harder intervals, more often or a different training plan.

To quote David Brent: “You’re not looking at the whole pie Jenny!”

When I look at someone’s running, I’m way interested in the bigger picture.

What has your training looked like for the last 6-12 months?

Are you running enough to support your goals?

How much of your week is genuinely easy?

Are you strong enough to tolerate the intensity?

Are you recovering from it?

Are you eating enough to fuel it?

And most importantly, are you consistently putting good weeks together?

Hero sessions and hardcore training plans dont exist on their own

Your running, strength work, nutrition, recovery and lifestyle all affect your ability to perform.

The goal isn’t just to give you better sessions

It’s to build a week that makes those sessions work.

That’s the difference between simply following a running plan and actually being coached.

Nice dance with the devil ✅

No PB but big moves 📈 red ambulance = required

Top 10 don’t you knowwww!

4 idiots thinking a super hilly 10k on a Sunday was a good idea 😂

Always a good day with the princess and meeting one of her unc’s for the first time ❤️

5km PB 🔔 The level keeps rising 📈

If you’re not moving forwards, you’re dying

Chill, it doesn’t have to be running or even fitness based

But we need to be striving to improve something

Always.

The feeling and process is essential 🤝

PB’s in every distance this year and we’re not even half way through

Lfg ✌🏻

Most people don’t fail because they aim too high, they fail because they never demand anything of themselves.

Performance matters, not because anyone else gives a ****, but because you should.

Chasing PBs, pushing your limits, falling short is what life’s all about!

You need to understand that all of the above = growth.

But everyone and everything tells us what we want to hear and rarely what we need to hear.

That “showing up when you feel like it” is enough.

Where being competitive is seen as toxic and pressure is something to avoid.

Pressure shows you what you’re capable of

Failure teaches you more than winning ever will

And your standards shape your future.

If you remove them, don’t be surprised when you stay exactly where you are.

**** settling, start expecting more 😁

All I want is regular running PB’s and a luscious green, w**d free lawn, that’s surely not too much to ask? 🏃‍♂️ 🪴
