The joys of a chunkier bike mean I have been tempted to venture out despite less than perfect conditions. Quick 40 miles in rain and wind. With two buddies though which was fun.

Injury avoidance is always better than injury rehabilitation. To this end I met with the squad kids and their parents at least once a season to discuss common pitfalls and ways to stay injury free. Super stoked to see such a big squad this year and they were so nice and receptive so hopefully all…

I really enjoy the cold and the snow. The old adage, “there’s no such thing as bad conditions, only bad equipment” rings true for me. Although sometimes, when seeking adventure I feel a bit over-equipped. For a cheeky jaunt up Pen Y Fan I had the new Rab Latok pack full of stuff: spares, survival…

As you can see from previous posts I have been training to run an ultra-marathon for 3 years. Specifically the Green Man but I also have in my sights the Exmoor Coast 100, the Cotswold Way (about 115miles) and a few others. But, I always get to about this point in my training and something…

I’m still doing this – its been over 2 years since I decided this was my goal and I have beset with many problems. Injury (back), surgery (for shoulder), more injury (fractured ribs), coronavirus (obvs), sneaky job change (watch this space), house refurb (necessary intervention) – not to mention work and life. But I’m as…

I love this time of year for getting out running. Strap supplies too your back and get into the countryside. Here I was on the Malverns. A great half marathon from South to North and return.

I work in two excellent clinics that have implemented really good saftey measures to protect everyone from coronavirus. I have also managed a few days out on the crag and even took my dog with me one…

Speaking from a physiotherapy perspective that is; I was reading an interesting thread the other day from a Physio (who I don’t know) about the importance of having a good squat/dead lift/etc to help improve his patient’s experience. I can’t say I agree. Patient experience is sometimes enhanced by a therapist’s experience but am I…

I’m always looking for fun things to do – luckily I enjoy many things; climbing, running, reading books, watching films, cycling, playing computer games, dog walking, hanging out with said dog, chillin, etc. But I really do enjoy mini adventures. 2 days in the saddle (which, out turns out of the wrong kind of saddle…
