Man that’s a tough pill to swallow 😔

I’ve trained too hard, for too long to not get the outcome I feel I deserve, but I guess in life nothing is given to you

But f**k I couldn’t have given any more, I reached the hour barely being able to stand, I was in and out of consciousness, losing my hearing and balance to the point when I crossed the line I just collapsed

I’ve never in my life pushed myself to that limit, my body just shut down on me, the only pain I had in my body was my heart, feeling helpless in that moment I was so gutted

Looking back I probably just didn’t address the spikes in heart rate soon enough, a lack of “race experience” showed and maybe aiming for stations as if I could do 60 minutes was too ambitious 🙃

I ran through it and like people say.. you can only burn so many matches and unfortunately I was on deaths door by the hour

Although disappointed, I’m super grateful I have the health to complete a Hyrox (bar anything over 60 minutes 💀😂), the training has made me fitter than I’ve ever been in my life but unfortunately a poorly executed race has took the shine off a very amazing weekend

F**k around and find out, until next time 🙌

Heres my top tips that have helped me PB at my Parkrun 🏃‍♂️

1. Tiredness is a state of mind, contrary to what your Garmin watch tells you 😴

2. Have so much caffeine you contemplate staying at home on the toilet 😳

3. Maturing is realising Parkrun is not a race, but if you’re immature like me race every Saturday like your life depends on it 🤪

4. Train arms at least 3 times a week. This will allow you to push past people and get a good starting spot rather than being stuck behind a dog or a pram 💪

5. Spend too much money on running shoes and Lycra shorts. The more streamline the better, I’m considering going bold if I lose out on my PB by a few seconds again 👨‍🦲

6. A tiesto mix will have you pumped and hitting the right cadence 🫨

7. Make sure you have noise cancellation headphones to drown out your heavy breathing and help you tap into childhood trauma 🫠

8. Race whoever’s near you for the final 500m, if there is no one, imagine David Goggins shouting “who’s gonna carry the boats” 🥵

9. Enjoy your PB by eating a well deserved pizza 😋

10. If you didn’t PB, proceed to ruin the weekend for you and those around you, as misery loves company 🙃

My First Race 🏃‍♂️ Truro Half Marathon

So yesterday I took part in my first ever running race! 😱 I really enjoyed how hard it was, made harder by the fact I hadn’t trained specifically for this, signed up for it quite literally the day before, completed my Parkrun and 90mins of Football before heading to Truro to race the next day 😂

My goal recently is to challenge my mind and this provided that challenge! More hills than I was ready for, but that’s part of the fun and the struggle I’ve been looking forward to facing

My stats were:
- Chip Time 1:47:07
- Gun Time 1:47:46
- Overall Rank 120/467
- Gender Rank 107/280
- Age Group Rank 34/81

- Average Pace 5’03 /KM
- Average Heart Rate 170 BPM

The run was made better by making a weekend of it with ❤️ Was nice to see down there also ☺️

Looking forward to challenging myself more and seeing what I can achieve with Running and Performance based events 👊

Beach Shoot 😎

Putting my client James in the spotlight as he’s absolutely nailed his Beach Photoshoot, captured by the amazing .photography 👏

James had a goal to look good and wanted the accountability aspect of a Photoshoot, but rather than being inside a gym or on a stage, he wanted to be in nature where he loves to spend time with his dog 🐶

I absolutely love this! Because what’s more relatable than getting a beach body for Summer ☀️

I would love to help someone else with a similar goal! My availability currently is very limited, but I will do everything I can to help you if this is something that interests you ☺️

Here’s how to choose the right coach 👀

1️⃣ The Eye Test
- You wouldn’t go to a dentist with no teeth, just like you shouldn’t go to a Coach who doesn’t take care of themselves! Choose someone that you’d aspire to be like 🙌

2️⃣ Gut Feeling
- Does the conversation I’m having feel like the genuinely want to help me? A good way of working this out is ask for some free advice.. those that are genuine and care will help you regardless ☺️

3️⃣ Results Matter!
- You can buy into anything that’s difficult if you can see results! Choose someone with a greater understanding that you can learn from 🤓

4️⃣ Experience
- Those that have done it the longest, tend to know what they’re doing. There’s a reason they have been Coaching for a long time, most likely because they are good at it 💪

5️⃣ Tough Love
- The amount of times I’ve had clients say “I’m gonna do X Y Z” and I’m like “listen Linda.. this is what you need”. Sometimes you need that tough love, don’t choose someone who’s too weak to tell you the hard truths when needed 👊

6️⃣ Choose someone you get along with
- I can’t stay in the room with someone for 2 minutes if they are boring, or negative 😂 Some people are energy suckers, that just drain the life outta you 🙃🔫 You should come away from your session thinking “I enjoyed that” even if the session was tough, rather than thinking “I really don’t want to go to this session”

7️⃣ Choose the best!
- This sounds so obvious but rarely happens! You wouldn’t go to a s**t doctor for your health, before then going to a good one. But many people choose a s**t gym or a s**t coach first to try and gain confidence to go to the better environment. But you will learn s**t habits, surround yourself with uninspired people, just go for it! Challenge yourself and if the coach and the environment is best, it will rub off on you also 🙌

8️⃣ Now who should you choose?
- Obviously here’s where I should say me.. but the truth is, the world has many amazing coaches! There’s so many people wanting to help, just hurry up and choose, as every day you are either 1 step closer or 1 step further away from having a better life ☺️
