The training continues! On 18th May I will be running my final race in aid of Crohn's & Colitis UK... a 58k (36 miles!) ultramarathon!

The training changes a bit now, and with just over a week to go I am taking my runs exclusively on trails and testing out my race day kit.

Here is my latest video along those lines!

You can still sponsor me! |Link in the comments 🙏🏻

What to do when you're up North visiting your folks... run of course! The marathon training must go on!
I had grand plans of running along the Cleveland Way to gain some experience of coastal running akin to the 58k ultramarathon I have in May... but it didn't work out quite that way!
Here is the link to my latest YouTube video for your amusement...

So … you know you need to keep a check on your protein intake and prioritise it in your diet…

But... for most of us we haven’t had to think about this before and it’s actually not that easy to hit the targets we set without completely overhauling our diet.

So start slowly.

Make sure for most of your meals you start out by choosing a quality protein source, then add in your vegetables and finally your fats and starchy grains.

You can sneak protein into many dishes too - either with whole foods such as Greek yoghurt or by “cheating” and adding protein powder to smoothies and oats.
