This week, I have taken a leaf straight out of James’ book and writing this from the beach in the Balearic sun. Travel is something that I have desperately missed over the last 19 months. It makes me happy. I have been fortunate enough to spend time travelling around the UK, when possible, throughout the…

Blog: Coeliac Awareness Week
Welcome to Coeliac Awareness Week. For those of you that don’t know, Coeliac disease is a condition where your immune system attacks your own tissues when you eat gluten.

Blog: A time to reflect
Happy New Year! I hope 2021 brings good health and happiness to you all. Over the Christmas break, I was watching the Gavin and Stacey Christmas special from 2019 with my wife.

Blog: Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating. It’s not a day that I celebrate personally, however, I have been thinking a lot recently about thanks and gratitude. In some of our training sessions we cover ‘living in the now’ and how ‘perfection is a lie’, James covered it perfectly when he talked about how we’ve all had…
Blog: Exercising during lockdown
I had big marathon plans for 2020, Barcelona and Manchester planned for the spring with another European trip planned for the autumn.
