Uncover your inner athlete!

Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten.. Each morning in Africa a lion awakes - it knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve.


No matter if you are the lion or the gazelle, when the sun comes up you had better be running!

The passing of a legend!

On the same day as Geoffrey Mutai made the whole world look pedestrian, we are greeted with the very sad news that perhaps the greatest female athlete has passed on as the great Grete Waitz lost her battle to cancer at age 57.

This is a great loss to womans running and I am stunned that she passed while still so young. Life really is too short.

Her record included nine New York Marathon wins and two London Marathon victories. She set a 2.24 as her best marathon and set numerous records from 3000m to the marathon and cross country.

May she rest in peace.
