​

Running has been a huge part of my life for over 25 years. During that time I've competed in everything from 5km races to some of the world's toughest ultra-endurance events, both in the UK and overseas. I've been fortunate enough to win several major ultras, achieve a sub-three-hour marathon and continue to enjoy competing in running, triathlon and other endurance events.

Ironically, I wasn't always a runner. At school I was the one hiding behind the sports pavilion to avoid being picked for teams! I know what it's like to lack confidence and feel that sport isn't for you, which is why I love working with people of all ages and abilities. Whether you're taking your first steps into exercise or striving for a personal best, my goal is to help you build confidence, enjoy the process and achieve your own potential.

​

Following the birth of our son in 2011, I chose to leave a successful career in Business Development, Change Management and Organisational Development to combine my professional experience with my passion for health and sport. I retrained as a Personal Trainer, Sports Massage Therapist and later became a certified Life Coach. My previous career taught me the importance of listening, understanding individual challenges and supporting people through change—skills that are just as valuable when helping clients achieve their health and fitness goals.

​

My coaching takes a holistic approach. Every programme is tailored to the individual and combines running coaching, strength and functional movement, sport-specific training, nutrition, rehabilitation and mindset. I am trained in running gait analysis and can assess running technique, helping to improve efficiency, performance and reduce the risk of injury through gait retraining, alongside specific strength, mobility and stretching exercises tailored to each individual. As a certified Life Coach, I also help clients develop the confidence, resilience and mental strategies needed to overcome challenges and achieve lasting success.

​

Over the years I've experienced my own share of injuries and setbacks, so I understand both the physical and emotional challenges they bring. Having learned first-hand the importance of rehabilitation, patience and returning to training at the right time, I work with clients to help them recover safely, reduce the risk of future injury and return to doing what they love with confidence.

Although running is my specialist area, I also work with clients from a wide range of sporting backgrounds, including cyclists, triathletes, equestrians, skiers, tennis players and people who simply want to become stronger, healthier and more active. Whether you're training for your first event, recovering from injury or looking to improve your overall fitness, every programme is designed specifically for you and your lifestyle.

​

I believe exercise should enhance your life, not take it over. My aim is to provide realistic, supportive coaching that fits around work, family and everyday commitments, helping you achieve results that are both enjoyable and sustainable.
