Just under 3 weeks since his last race at the Scottish Half Marathon, Craig was back this weekend taking on Glenmore 24.

Aiming for his first full 100 miler, he paced things spot on according to the plan and came in under the 24 hour time limit to claim his 100 mile coaster (and the horn from Ada).

Craig has had a prolific year with fast 5k events, road races, hill races, looped ultra events and getting his first West Highland Way goblet. It’s been a big year with some big miles and hard training sessions but it’s been a pleasure to work with him. Always follows the plan and buys in to what we are trying to do. Rarely misses a session even when life is busy or the weather is rough.

Time for a well earned off season now and time to reflect on a great year of big goals captured.

Well done mate 👏

Running more isn’t always the answer.

Especially when you’re balancing training with work, family and everything else life brings.

You may already run three, four or five times a week.

You may belong to a running club.

You may have completed a half marathon, marathon or ultra.

And now you’re wondering:

“How good could I become?”

The answer may not be more training.

It may be better training.

We coach recreational runners who want to improve while keeping running realistic.

Your training should:

✓ Adapt when work gets busy

✓ Account for your recovery

✓ Prepare you for your goals

✓ Give every session a purpose

You don’t need to live like a professional athlete to take your running seriously.

Have a race coming up? Feel like your training could deliver more?

Shoutout to Craig who took on the Scottish Half Marathon at the weekend.

This was definitely a training/fun run with Glenmore 24 coming up in a few weeks, but a good test of the legs for Craig during what has been a prolific 2026.

Diligently following a plan and prioritising key races is the best way to get a peak performance out of yourself but not at the expense of enjoying what you are doing. If you are capable of entering events and running them below your best effort, treating them as a long training run, then it’s a great way to keep your head in the racing bubble.

Craig has had a fantastic 2026 so far and he’s not done yet! Watch this space in September.

We’re keeping things local for the first Heads Pace social run starting this Saturday 22nd August. An out and back lolli...

We’re keeping things local for the first Heads Pace social run starting this Saturday 22nd August.

An out and back lollipop from North Berwick Law to East Linton along the John Muir Way. Perfect for anyone doing the Breaking The Laws race in September or the John Muir Ultra in March.

All paces welcome. This is a social run, not a competition and we will be pausing at Smeaton Tearooms in East Linton to grab a coffee/cake for the journey back.

The route is 100% trail and pretty flat with 829ft of elevation. Option to add more with a climb of NB Law at the end.

If you are intending to come along, please drop me little message so I can gauge numbers in advance.

Thanks.

New products in our online store.

We’ve been busy behind the scenes updating our website and adding some exciting new products to our downloadable resources.

The Backyard Crew system is a complete crewing resource for anyone with an interest in running a Backyard Ultra. Built for both runner and crew, it contains advice for camp setup, how to communicate effectively, how to solve problems during the event and how to apply systems to keep going yard after yard.

The Backyard Toolkit is a collection of printable forms to help record all the important information about your event, every yard. From fuelling and nutrition to equipment and handover sheets, this takes your crewing organisation to the next level.

Our Mindset Journal is perfect for anyone with mindset issues like race anxiety, overwhelm, imposter syndrome, and focus and can help you plan and prepare for any event. This workbook gives you the tools to get the best out of yourself when the tough miles come.

These resources and all our other race and distance specific plans are live on our website now.

In addition, we have The Backyard Toolkit. A collection of simple, printable log sheets for recording all the important information from each yard so runners and crews can keep on top of nutrition, hydration, kit, medication and performance.
