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!

Running faster to run faster

I was having a good chat with a young lady today who was down on herself as she felt she was not now running to her full potential. Her times are far from bad, but when we looked at her training in depth, it turned out she was only doing loads of one pace running and not varying things up abit.


The best advice I have ever been given is that if you want to run faster then you have to run faster in training. Getting your shorter stuff faster over 5 and 10KM and the rest will unfold itself along the way.

I have followed this advice and seen my times improve in accordance and you can to. Those 400s and 200s are the keys in my view and not something that you should just do every so often.
