Achieve Your Goal in 3 Steps When it comes to people giving advice about how to achieve a goal, you’ve probably heard some variation of the catch phrase “see it, believe it, achieve it” and then rolled your eyes without giving it another thought. Many people will say these are merely words, and cannot […]
What do you focus on during training sessions? Focusing on the things you can control is the key to keeping your focus on the goals you’re aiming for. Other people or even the weather (which we will discuss later) cannot control your attitude; it’s your choice to have a positive frame of mind during each […]
RUNNING NUTRITION & HYDRATION PLAN One thing I see WAY too often is ultra-runners taking on races without a running nutrition or hydration plan. Some get away with it, until they don’t. When it goes bad, it can be really bad. Running nutrition & hydration is something which needs to be practised, planned, and […]
RUNNING THROUGH THE DARK RUNS Don’t get me wrong, running is fun, enjoyable, and rewarding; at times though, it is really hard! When it is hard, these are the Dark Runs WE ALL have at some point of our running training. The ones you spend most of the time trying to convince yourself it’s […]

ANYONE CAN HIDE AN EATING DISORDER Unless you’ve read my autobiography Chasing Extreme, or have followed me closely for a while, you may not know that for over three years (between 2013-2016) I struggled with an eating disorder. This was a very dark time in my life, where I hid large parts of it […]
BE PATIENT WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR RUNNING FITNESS We all have those days where we feel amazing post run. AND We all have those runs where we struggle to simply get out the front door. What about those weeks where every session just seems tough, and you ‘think’ your running fitness is declining? It’s […]
CHOOSE DISCOMFORT & RUNNING BECOMES EASIER Very few people who i’ve met enjoy being in pain, or doing things which are physically, mentally, or emotionally hard. (Ok, we know running is hard, but i’m sure you know what I mean…) So why do something if you don’t enjoy it? Because choosing the easy option […]
