Home Town: Shreswbury

About: I’m 51yrs old and have been running for around 12yrs. Initially after having got comfortable with short 5km road runs at a reasonable sub 20min pace I extended to the odd 1okm and 1/2 marathon. I’ve completed a few sprint triathlons but was finding none of these particularly rewarding.
Having re-located from East Anglia to Shropshire in 2017 I soon discovered the wonder of hills and trails. I now have a passion for running in the Shropshire hills. No pressure on time other than my self-motivation to feel I’ve got the most out of my time. 1./2 Marathon (The Icing on the Cake) this weekend.

About: Been running for a few years on and off but lockdown got me interested again.  A friend who is a great runner puts together weekly plans for me, and that accountability means that for the most part of 2021 i stuck to it and got more and more into it.   Primarily i run to stay fit and healthy (and sane) and secondly, it’s always nice to feel faster and to hit a specific goal.  Last year I aimed to get back under 20Mins for the 5KM, and achieved that – so am looking for more challenges and different types of events to keep me going.

I lost a bit of motivation when the clocks changed last year, but am getting back into things and have started a new plan and am starting to run with my black labrador, Gus,  As we hopefully move past the ofid restrictions, i’m looking for a more social side to running in 2022.

About

I have been running for a few years, mainly shorter distances.
Having recently completed my first road marathon, I now want to venture into ultra running on the trails. The slower pace, the amazing scenery, great community, oh and the food await

About: I started running at the beginning of 2020, before the first lockdown. I have been running regularly since. I enjoy the freedom running gives me, new friendships that came through running and the feeling of strength and accomplishment that comes after.

About: I am originally from Sheffield and now live in Chichester on the South Coast with my husband and 2 children. My fitness journey started in August 2020, exactly a year before my 40th birthday, with Couch to 5k which I wasnt expecting to enjoy. I loved it!
Discovering running has not only considerably improved my fitness but has also aided in stabilizing my metal health as our family has navigated the Covid crisis.
I recently ran a 10k race and having thought that road running was my preference I have found real joy in trail running. I have committed to a 50k trail race in June 2022, the real work begins now!
