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!

Foot strengthening

A fairly simple piece today on how to strengthen your feet.

Exercise one: Place a towel on the floor and grip it up using your toes. Grip it for a short period and then release. Practise gripping and releasing for a few minutes twice or three times a day.

Exercise Two: Use a golf ball or a bouncy ball to massage and strengthen your feet by picking it up using your toes. Repeat twice a day for a few minutes while at your desk or eating your dinner.

Exercise Three: Lying on the ground, pull your toes up towards your stomach and hold that stretch for 3-5 minutes at a time.

Try these a few times a week and lessen the chances of plantars, Achilles and other such problems.

Wave injuries goodbye. Stride for stride on a life changing ride. – Sean Muller
