Rain doesn’t have to ruin your run… but slipping on a wet surface definitely will 😂

If you’re running in the rain, a few small changes can make a big difference:

🌧️ Pick the lane with the least amount of water to avoid puddles
🏃🏾‍♂️ Adjust your pace when stopping, slow down gradually and not abruptly
🦵When you are in your run, lift up your knees and don’t drag your feet

You don’t have to skip every rainy run - just know when and how to adapt.

Save this for the next time the weather decides to test you ☔️

I have been getting slower over 100m recently and I think my starts may be my weakest link. So I am trying to fix this asap 😅.

Let me know if you want to know what I have changed to try and improve my block starts.

My first ever British Championship 110m Hurdles race did not turn out how I expected but I made it through. That's what discipline helped me to achieve!

Last year this time I was thinking my injuries may take a really long time to hear properly. This is how much can change in a year.

Jumping doesn’t just come from the knees.

If you want to improve your jump, you need to work on your explosiveness, coordination and ability to produce power.

These are some of the drills I use to build those qualities.

Start with the basics, focus on good technique and build from there.

Save this for your next training session. 🏃🏾‍♂️

My first outdoor season since coming back in my 30s has been great. Yes i had my challenges and have not yet run as fast as I did 20 years ago but it's great to have open events like @mksprintseries to complete against younger and older athletes.

I was even able to run with @marvel_uk 's own @spiderman ...

Things I’ve learnt running at 38 that I wish I knew at 18…

At 18, I just wanted to run fast. I didn’t think too much about what came before or after the session.

Now I realise the little things make a big difference.

1️⃣ Warming up matters.
I used to want to get straight into the hard stuff. Now I know preparing your body properly is part of the training.

2️⃣ Drills actually matter.
I never really appreciated them when I was younger. Now I understand how much they can help with movement and technique.

3️⃣ Speed takes time.
You can’t just expect to run your fastest because you want to. Build it gradually, stay consistent and let your body adapt.

Funny how you can spend years running and still have so much to learn.

Preparing for the race of of your life maylook a little different in your 30s.

But if you want to keep bouncing back in your 30s and 40s join the journey.

If you’re an athlete, try adding these to your routine ☝️

It’s not about doing everything perfectly - it’s about building small habits that support your performance and recovery over time.

Save this for your next training week 🏃🏾‍♂️

Since I started athletics at 38 hurdle mobility drills have been the lifeline I needed. I was an uncoordinated mess when I started but a year later i must say I am feeling the rhythm.

Focusing on mobility when you return to sports will help your body make the most of the strength at you have and allow you to reduce your chance for injury.

The passion is the same but my knees aren’t 😭

After a 15 year break, I decided I wanted to take up track again and it hasn’t been easy, but boy has it been rewarding.

Since starting again I won the British Masters Athletics Pentathlon Championship in my first indoor season

And we are just getting started!

If I started long jump again, this is exactly what I’d focus on 👟

1. Mastering your run-up 🏃🏽‍♀️
Start simple. Use three steps, set your cone, and gradually build up your run-up until you feel comfortable and consistent.

2. Mastering your knee drive 🦵🏽
Make sure you’re driving your knee high and moving it forwards and upwards. This will help create more power and height through your jump.

3. Mastering your take-off 🙌
Focus on driving up through the take-off, lifting your knees and reaching your hands towards the sky. A strong take-off sets up the rest of your jump.

This is everything you need to know if you want to start long jump!
