Running has always been a major part of my life. I ran at school, at university and throughout my adult life. While initially it was something I did to stay fit in the off-season for my other sports, I came to love the solitude of running long distances, ultimately running my first ultramarathon while I was still studying.

Having the opportunity to develop and contribute to the sport (and people’s lives) through coaching gives me purpose. I love watching athletes grow and succeed, gaining confidence and retaining their zest for life!

My coaching style draws from my personal experience, having trained under several well-known coaches at both a social and elite level. I make every effort to stay up to date with international coaching, strength and nutritional trends and read vociferously to ensure my training methods are in-keeping with modern science.
