When all the training is done…

By | Fitness, Personal Journeys | 2 Comments

This blog is dedicated to Claire, Tinners, Jules, Jeffers, Bru, Luca, Debs, Bev, Chelle and the Lady Lund. If Carlsberg did support crews…you’d be it. Thank you for making it all so much fun.

Yes, I went right to the very edge of my capability with that half ironman distance triathlon in Chester a few weeks ago. Or did I?

Well it certainly felt like it in the closing 4km of the run. When you’ve been on the moving constantly for just under 7 hours and everything starts to hurt you’ve got to have a good answer for the question: why am I putting myself through this?

Training Update…

By | Fitness, Personal Journeys | 2 Comments

So, I’ve been banging on for a few months about training for a long triathlon challenge (Half Ironman Distance) and I’ve been learning some pretty interesting stuff along the way so I thought it was worth checking in with an update.

There were lots of reasons to take on a challenge like this: 1) Triathlons are fun and I always say you’re more likely to stay engaged with exercise if you’re having fun 2) I ask a lot of my clients during their sessions – I’m constantly pushing them to find new limits and I want them to see me push my own limits as well 3) I tend to do better at longer, harder events where the challenge is actually getting to the end rather than how fast you get to the end 4) I wanted a challenge that was big enough to really scare me, that I had to look at and really wonder how on earth I was going to finish so that clients would see me go through that process and start thinking about how to approach their own challenges.

Managing the January madness…

By | Client | No Comments

To finish off the series of new year blogs, I got chatting to Claire Hougham earlier this week about getting stuck in the January cycle and she had a very sensible approach to it all that I wanted to share.

Claire is one of those crazy types who regularly dashes off at the weekend to run a marathon or an Ultra marathon. She’ll be joining the team at All Change fairly soon to work with clients who want to focus on running, so whether you’re a seasoned runner looking to get faster or run longer distances, or you’re new to running and want some help getting started then Claire is going to be able to help!
