Grief comes in many different forms. We usually associate grief with the death of a person or animal we loved deeply. But it can also be triggered by other events, such as the end of a relationship or the loss of a job. Grief plays out differently in everyone and there is no way around…

Running Home for Christmas – Join Me On My Next Challenge
Every morning I go for a run around the fields with Brew Dog. It’s a chance to watch stunning sunrises and take 30-40 minutes of wonderful headspace, setting me up for the new day. One morning this week Christmas popped into my mind. Warm, happy memories flooded through me, quickly followed by the dread of…
The Power in Letting Go – How to Leave Hurt and Anger Behind
Recently I have mentioned the power in letting go a couple of times. It seems to be something that resonates with people. I wanted to explain a little more about what I mean by it, why I believe in it and explain how you can harness the power in letting go yourself. What do I…
Beachy Head Marathon – Healing A Break
This post was going to be purely about the Beachy Head Marathon. As I sat down to write it I realised it needed to be about something more. It needed to be about strength and weakness. Realising your strengths and accepting your weaknesses. When I took a fall just a few weeks before the marathon…

A Walk From Newark and Kelham
Having grown up between Newark and Nottingham I have an affection for both towns. Newark, though, retains a certain charm which Nottingham sadly lost along with many of its historic buildings. This Friday we took the train from Nottingham, out through the villages I grew up in and around, to Newark. We had found a walk on…
Pre-race Nerves: Why Do They Jangle?!
I’m a little on edge this week, a little fidgety. With less than a week to go until the Beachy Head Marathon I am starting to feel the faint jangling’s of nerves coming on. This happens to me with any sporting event I take part in although cycling events do not seem to elicit the…
Free Running
Today’s adventure was free running. Not the sort where you leap from building to building – although I would love to give that a go! This free running was the type where you don’t really know where you are going or how far; you just go. This morning it was pouring with rain and I…
