How did you get into coaching?

I started coaching adults at another club in 2017 but it was my love of cross country that drew me to taking on the Cross Country Manager role with the juniors last year. I have been doing the PECO races since 2013 and think it encapsulates running in its purest form. I started coaching with the middle distance group in September 2023.

What do you like about coaching?

Seeing athletes having fun at training and progressing in cross country and on the track.

What do you coach?

I coach middle distance sessions.

Something fun I'd like you to know!

My best sporting achievement came not as a runner but on a bike when, in 2016, I cycled across the Pyrenees from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean in under 100 hours. I have hardly been back on my bike since!
