G2E Edition 🥇🏃🏻‍♂️

Now onto this weekend with the team 👏🏻

We had four of our legends taking on the G2E 🏃🏻‍♂️

57 miles of madness from one city to another 😳

Nicky - First up we had Nicky, joining the team over a month ago the focus was making sure we nailed all the areas needed to go smash the course 👏🏻
And he did so, ticking off an incredible time of 10HR 34 🥳

Top top work matey, superb work 🙌🏻

Reece - Next up, we had Reece! Smashing out his first ultra and a tremendous season of racing this year 👏🏻 we’ve prepped for a good few months for this and everything came together on the day 🥳
Smashing out an incredible time of 12HR’s 13 👏🏻
Plus a 4:35KM pace around the track to finish 🤣
Amazing work! Smashed it out the park 🙌🏻

Davy - We then had Davy taking on his first ultra as well👏🏻
Both him & Reece have ben working hard over the last few months prepping for this and he nailed all of his prep on the lead up to race day! It all came together on race day 🥳
Nailing an incredible time of 12HR’s 6 👏🏻
Incredible work matey! Superb work 🙌🏻

Crawford - Last up we had Crawford, who only signed up 4 weeks before the race 🫣 but absolutely smashed it out the park!
He’s had an incredible race season already this year but this was the icing on the cake 👏🏻
Nailing an incredible time of 12HR’s 10 🥳
Superb work mate, what a year you’ve had so far 👏🏻

An amazing weekend for team

On what is a very tough tough course and race 🙌🏻

Superb effort team! A huge well done to everyone over the last few weeks 🙌🏻🏆

GSR Edition 🥇🏃🏻‍♂️

It’s a week late but we don’t forget our team results 🎯

Last weekend we had our team out smashing the GSR

And they didn’t disappoint 👏🏻

Laura R - First up we had Laura, smashing out her half marathon PB 🏆
What a performance and result for her! She absolutely smashed her prep on the lead up to it and we’re very much looking forward to nailing that sub 2 which is in the tank for her 👏🏻
Top top work my friend 🥳🙌🏻

Michelle - Next up we had Michelle, taking on her first half marathon & what a result she took away 👏🏻
Beating her previous time during training by 26 mins 😳
She threw everything at it during her training and it all paid off in the end! 
Well done my friend 🥳🙌🏻

Laura C - We then had Laura, taking on not only her first ever half marathon but also her first ever race 👏🏻
Smashing it out the park! The prep wasn’t easy but she always dug deep to cross that finish line and all in a good cause too 🙌🏻
Super proud of your hard work & effort my friend 🥳🙌🏻

Declan - Last up we had Declan taking on his second half in a few months 👏🏻
Smashing out an absolutely tremendous time in tough conditions & dealing with some niggling injuries on the lead up to race day 🎯
Huge well done matey, keep up the good work 🫡

Another top weekend of racing boxed off by the team 👏🏻

Now onto this weekend & the G2E… 🏃🏻‍♂️

The Calella Diaries 🫠🤣

What a week it’s been

Genuinely couldn’t have planned this week if we tried 🤣
Was all going to plan until it wasn’t

The weather on Saturday was absolutely wild so it was, it was proper hurricane weather & the best decision was definitely to cancel the race

It’s a bit rubbish not being able to go put all the training to good use but this is racing & the progression over the last year I’m super happy with 👏🏻

I’ve deferred to next year so I guess we go again 🫠🤣

Here’s some snapshots of the last 3 days of madness and throwing a wee half marathon into the mix this morning whilst the weather was decent for a few hours 🤣

Time to rebuild and go again 🫡

5 Reasons You Need The Off Season 🎯

It’s almost here

And here’s all the reasons why you need to get involved 👏🏻

What we do, you won’t find anywhere else

We blend physio & coaching together specifically for runners 🏃🏻‍♂️

But we focus on unlocking athletic performance for you across all planes

So, let’s look at some reasons why you should join:

1. Structure - the last thing you need right now is another race! 
You need structure to your training! Organisation & a weekly schedule that you can rinse & repeat 👏🏻
Getting good at building your volume, developing your capacity! This is where the big wins come when you go into the main marathon block!

2. Developing Capacity - runners need to develop capacity but not just from an aerobic perspective! They need to become stronger across all areas physically & aerobically 💪🏻
We need to focus on mobility to access range of motion! We then need to do relevant strength work to build the strength and then progress it 🙌🏻

3. Running Economy - how you move is the most important part of run progression 🏃🏻‍♂️ if you want to get a stronger VO2 Max, you need to spend time improving how you move! 

Running is a skill that requires consistent work to progress it!

4. Nutrition & Physique - most runners get into running to lose weight! 
But never spend the time working on the areas that they have probably neglected since! 
Improving their relationship with food, with their physique and getting on top of all areas physically before going into your marathon block 💪🏻

5. Ready To Perform - no more chasing your tail come January! The block should already have kicked off by then but if we’re just getting started then we’re already trying to cram it in 🫣

Don’t go into that marathon block chasing your tail wishing you started sooner!

Access Your Range 🎯

Strength is paramount for every one

Not just runners 🏃🏻‍♂️

There isn’t a human being alive who doesn’t benefit from getting stronger 💪🏻

However, before we dive into strength work

We need to look at the limitations with our mobility 🧘🏻‍♂️

Mobility and access to range of motion

Allows us to dive deeper into our strength work

It allows us to build top end strength

And not build compensation 🫣

Everyone is different

Everyone has their own limitations with their ranges

Which is why we need to assess and test 📊

This way we can know exactly what we need to work on
What range we need access to
And how we can then build strength to support it 🏋🏻‍♂️

Is mobility something you struggle with?

Don’t know where to start 🤔

Drop me a DM and I’ll run you through our specific runners screening 🙌🏻

Weymouth 70.3 🏆👏🏻

What a weekend for our

I remember this time last year John reached out with the idea doing a 70.3 👏🏻

That weekend there he ticked that off after completing Weymouth 70.3 🥳

This year has been incredible so far for John

With yhr following being racked up:

- Manchester Marathon 🏃🏻‍♂️
- Braveheart’s Scotathlon Triathlon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
- Weymouth 70.3 🏊🏻‍♂️🚴🏻‍♂️🏃🏻‍♂️🏆

All done whilst juggling a busy work schedule, being in the thick of a uni degree, an internship & just living his life at the same time 👏🏻

Triathlon is a hugely demanding sport on all areas of your life

But John has taken it all in his stride this year

And just thrown himself in the deep end and it all paid pff on Sunday 🙌🏻

With some hard conditions on the day, digging in and crossing that finish line to join a club that only 0.01% of the population are in 🥳

And it’s been a pleasure to help you across every step of it and I can’t wait to see what comes next! 

I know the bug is there and it’s only going to grow stronger, alongside John’s performances 👏🏻

The big thing to take away from this though is why he done everything he did this year

I remember talking to John this time last year

He hadn’t long lost his gran who played a massive part in his life

Which gave him that drive and passion to go and raise money for charity to help those who would be in similar situations 👏🏻

No matter how hard it was going to get

Whatever was thrown at him

I know that his why pulled through what is an incredibly hard feat 💪🏻

Proud of you matey

What a year you’ve had and some well earned downtime 👏🏻🤣

John welcome to the 0.01% club 🤝🏆

Barcelona IM Prep ✅

Last big week of training done for Barca and I’m very much ready to taper 👏🏻

It’s been 3 years since I last done full a full distance and I’m very much looking forward to what’s to come 2 weeks today!

We’ve prepped for the last 9 months for this & the toll it takes is crazy! Across all areas of your life, personally, professionally it’s not just you competing but everyone who helps you along the way 🎯

There’s something amazing about this sport and Ironman that shows you what you’re truly capable of! Back in 2023 I had no idea what I was walking into, I had only learned to swim front crawl 6 months before

3 years on with 70.3’s, multiple different triathlon distances racked up, a lot of experience, a lot of training and progression

I’m looking forward to going out there and putting it all together 💪🏻

To everyone who’s helped along the way it means a hell of a lot, to all my clients who are smashing it even with my brain fog these last few weeks 🫣🤣

And to Natalie Pirrie who i literally couldn’t do this without! She has held down the fort, picked up the pieces and put up with me being hungry & tired for the last 6 months 🧡🧡

Time to taper
Time to go have some fun 🤘🏻

Your Dream Marathon Prep…

It starts now 🎯

Which probably goes against what you’ve thought before

Marathons are a specific type of madness

That requires specific training and being able to develop the result that you want in just 16-20 weeks is absolutely madness

Which is why we need to use this off season

This time right now

Before our blocks all start in January 🫣

To take care of all of the other areas that make a solid marathon performance

The strength & conditioning work
The running economy & technique
The base building
The tackling the nutrition & getting your physique where you want it to be

All of those become very difficult whilst trying to hit those miles during a marathon block 🤦🏻‍♂️

If we don’t have our ducks in a row

We will find that the goals we’ve set out

Become that little bit harder

If you want that spring marathon performance like never before…

Now is the time to start 🤝🏻

DM us OFF SEASON to get started 🚀
