 Firstly I’m passionate about running. I’ve been running ever since I could walk.

I’m middle aged now but still have an appetite and gain a great deal of satisfaction from a new training run, a first time race, clocking up a new best or a good for age based time.

I’ve been a running club member since 2004 and have competed in everything from 100 metres to 52.4 miles (a double marathon). I have completed a number of marathons including some overseas. You’ll often find me running in local races and most Saturday mornings I’ll be found at a local Croydon or Bromley parkrun either chasing a new best or pacing other runners so that they can improve their own times.

I have gained a number of fitness and running qualifications over the years from the YMCA, Bromley College, Newcastle College and UK Athletics. I also have a current enhanced CRB clearance from UK Athletics. Evidence of qualifications can be produced on request.

I can combine running know how, not only through qualifications gained, but also through tried and tested experience.
