From the 2nd hottest London Marathon ever to the Glentress Half-Marathon Trail with 850m elevation… Susie has gone taken on some big challenges this year.

In the last 12 months she has:

• Run a brilliant London Marathon in brutal heat

• Taken on the Bermuda Open Water Swim

• Worked tirelessly around an old Achilles issue

• And last month lined up for her first race since London… up in Scotland on the trails!

And she absolutely smashed it.

⛰️ 1:58:34
⛰️ 1st in category
⛰️ 2nd female (only beaten by a local!)
⛰️ 19th overall

Her words say it best:
“Was really chuffed to keep 2nd and come in under 2hrs… I felt good enough to have a good blast downhill at the end.”

This is what consistency, smart training and resilience look like.

Proud of you, Susie.

Drop some 🔥 in the comments for her!

Look at that face. This is my client, Simon, you’ll recognise I did a post about Simon last month that spoke about his success in the Goodwood Marathon.

We had a race debrief and Simon had decided to enter Deauville Marathon already, just 28 days a part, “what should I do?” Was the question.

Although we’ve gotten used to hearing about all these distance challenges, I can’t emphasise enough just how difficult it is on the body and the cellular level damage that occurs following marathon races.

Simon had just run a brilliant 2:53:32 marathon and felt like he was in such good condition that a trip over to France for a spot of running was a good idea.

A careful balance of 2 weeks recovery training following by a week of getting back to it and a maintenance week blending into a taper led him to the Deauville start line.

What a great performance, recording back to back, sub 3 hour marathons under a month apart.

Now remember that face, well that was the determination to get over the finish line before 2:55, and he did by 7 seconds.

Now it’s time to build strength and resilience and some more speed because 2026 he’s got some big goals.

Well done Simon, very proud of you!

Last week, our Head Coach, Arj opened the inaugural International Running Expo (IRX) in Amsterdam — a new global platform for the running community.

From leading the opening drills session and Scott Jurek turning up, to cutting the ribbon, to moderating a panel on community growth (with Parkrun, Up & Running Netherlands and Ann Arbor Running Co), it was a reminder:
Running is only getting bigger and there is a place for us all.

Arj was honoured to share some time with childhood heroes — Colin Jackson, Jamie Baulch, John Regis who were lived up to their legendary status.

This industry doesn’t invite just anyone. It invites those who bring clarity, not noise.

Performance Physique was built on the basis of hard work and we’ve established ourselves as industry leaders. That shift doesn’t happen overnight. It’s built on 20 years of evidence-based coaching, athlete-centred programming, and showing up — even when no one’s watching.

Grateful to the IRX team for the invasion and the platform — and to every athlete who’s trusted me with their potential. You make moments like this possible.

One week. Six races. One team.

This is what happens when science meets soul in coaching.

Simon didn’t just run a marathon — he returned from illness, injury, and months of rehab to place 2nd in 2:53 at Goodwood.

First marathon. No ego. Just patience, a speed block, and a plan built for the long game — not the quick win.

Susie? She’s the ultimate all-rounder — swimmer, runner, Hyrox athlete. We gave her three shoulder rehab cues. The rest? All her grit. She swam 10K open water in Bermuda — because that’s who she is, nothing for us to take credit of, just really proud of her.

Annette came back from a tough Worlds campaign and a chaotic year — business, family, life — and smashed a 2-minute PB in her Hyrox Doubles.

Becky trained around a “ridiculous schedule” and still nailed her second Doubles with calm confidence.

Jackie — former triathlete, 6 weeks out from her first-ever Hyrox — logged an incredible 1:18:37. The bug’s been planted.

And Gareth? First half-marathon. 1:46:33. He was using Runna to train but needed something personalised, to, fix his technique, our pacing guide for the race and now he’s locked in for London 2026. His words: “You’ve made a huge difference.”

These aren’t random wins.

They’re the result of coaching that sees the person, not just the athlete.

We don’t do templates.
We do individualised, evidence-based plans that respect your life, your history, and your goals — whether you’re chasing a podium, a PB, or just proving something to yourself.

Most people know one facet of training without the person.

We know the sport, the strength and conditioning, the running and the nutrition plus how to get those results with real human beings.

If you’re done guessing, done suffering through generic plans, and ready to train with clarity, confidence, and science…

👉🏾 DM “COACHING” — and let’s build your story.
