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 recovery run

The recovery run is certainly one element of running that I really enjoy in the week following the marathon. It is that slow, effortless jog through – just enough to keep the legs ticking over that one can really enjoy and just get the blood flowing through the legs yet again.

So many people I know overlook this type of running altogether or else do very limited amounts of it. For me it is essential that I run at different speeds in order to keep the interest levels up and to make sure that things remain fun always. Fun is the cornerstone of why I run and also freedom – freedom to explore and wander over the earth as we were all born to.
