Meet The Team
Age/Location: 26, London
Running Experience: Intermediate/ Regular Runner
Goal: Berlin Marathon 2021. Leading up to this main goal I’ll also be participating in the Hackney Half Marathon and Asics London 10K.
Running Routine: Currently coming back from an IT band Injury. Running 3/4 times a week with walk breaks, to ease myself back into it. The Plan is to hopefully up the image in the spring/summer in prep for Berlin Marathon.
I incorporate regular strength and conditioning training to help with the IT band.
Running Gear: Nike Vaporfly/Alphafly and the Infinity Run for long/recovery runs.
Apple Watch with Nike Run Club App/Strava.
Any tips/advice/fun facts: I learnt the hard way for how important strength and conditioning training is to accompany a marathon program.
Best Running Experience: It has to be my first London Marathon in 2018. The crowd and atmosphere are just incredible - the buzz you get when a stranger shouts your name to cheer you on. Another proud running moment was when I got my first sub 40 min 10K at the Asics London 10K in 2019.
Age/Location: 30-40, London
Running Experience: Beginner
Goal: Running Half Marathon in 2021
Running Routine: Weekdays interval run, weekends long run and strength/fitness Monday to Friday

Any tips/advice/fun facts: Running is a progress with dedications. Motivate yourself or run with a partner. Understand your body before pushing to the limits.
Age/Location: 40-50, London
Running Experience: I started in my 30s and have been running for 12 years. After the birth of our second son, I hardly got to use my gym subscription. Running is much easier - have shoes, run anywhere!
Goal: Postponed 2020 Royal Parks Half due in April 21 - looking unlikely, so I will focus on improving my 10K time.
What do you enjoy most about running and the running community: It's a great way to start the day, I love exploring the city and the endorphin rush it gives me. My favourite is a long run whilst chatting to a friend.
Running Routine: I try to run 3 times a week. Supposed to be training for a postponed half marathon, so I crack out an interval session, mid distance run and a long run. I have one personal training session a week and one session of strength/conditioning.
Running Gear:Â ASICS - Gel Kayanos are great for my hyper mobility.
What has been your best running experience? 2018 Royal Parks Half Marathon, breaking 1h50.
Any tips/advice/fun facts? Variety is key to sustain enjoyment, as is balance with strength and conditioning work to improve endurance and sharpness.
