About Me
Built for speed not distance, but trying to run longer, faster! I used to have to do "forced" training runs during my very brief spell as an international cricketer, and I hated running. I ran my first half marathon in 2006, and hated every slow minute of it. I sat waiting for my partner to finish a marathon in early 2013 watching the shapes and sizes of people crossing the line, and thought "if they can run, so can I". 8 more half marathons later, I'm improving and running longer, and my minute per mile pace is slowly coming down.

About Me

Built for speed not distance, but trying to run longer, faster!

I used to have to do "forced" training runs during my very brief spell as an international cricketer, and I hated running. I ran my first half marathon in 2006, and hated every slow minute of it.

I sat waiting for my partner to finish a marathon in early 2013 watching the shapes and sizes of people crossing the line, and thought "if they can run, so can I". 8 more half marathons later, I'm improving and running longer, and my minute per mile pace is slowly coming down.
