Running/Coaching

I've pretty much always ran. Ever since I won my first race at the fun run in Primary 1 - I've loved it. At times the love for it can come and go like the tide. But simply - I love it. 

​

Back in 2014 I completed in an Ironman distance triathlon. The run section was on the West Highland Way, and finished going up and down Ben Nevis. I though I could improve my run split if I took a year out and focussed on running for a year. 

​

I've not swam or cycled since. Going long - and all the feelings that came with it were too much to turn down and go back to the speedos or the bike. 

​

Since then I've ran some cool races; 

​

Great Glen Way - 2nd place, 1st place

Glen Lyon - 1st place

West Highland Way - 19 hours 20 ish

Glenmore 24 - 131 miles - 1st place

Glasgow to Edinburgh - 7:09 - 2nd place

Sri Chinmoy 100K - 7:22

​

I'm currently in love with the tarmac and flat miles. My goals currently are Glasgow to Edinburgh 2024, and then the ACP 100K in 2025 again. 

​

My performance at races is important to me. But not as important as other peoples performances at races are to me. 

​

Since joining the team I've coached athletes from completing their first 10K, to finishing the West Highland Way, to out performing my distance at Glenmore 24, and everything in between. 

​

I love the puzzle of trying to make people better. 

​

If you're interested in being part of the team, had to the contact page and I'll be in touch as soon as I can.
