Just thought I’d share these short videos on the life of a distance runner and how I cope during a race. Started fundraising last month and the pressure really is building ahead of the next three marathons.
Thanks to everyone for supporting me and Chest Heart Stroke Scotland and my efforts on their behalf. I had a very serious.SAH out of the blue when I was just 30 followed by a second at 35. Just goes to show you should never take your health for granted.

"In my experience, raising money for charity can actually be harder than the event."

Recently had several athletes complaining of ankle problems but of course this type of issue is common amongst the general public too so here are some of the basics.

1. Isolating ankle and writing the alphabet upper or lowercase
2. Ankle walks
3. Tiptoe walking
4. Bent/straight knee calf stretches
5. Single leg balancing

Apologies for not posting in a while but had a lot of things on. Please take time to look over the info. graphic regarding exercise for older populations.
Many of the people I see in clinic fall within the 40 - 75 years range with a few exceptions either side. For “normal” daily living we should all be looking toward proofing our bodies and minds for longevity and thus we all fall somewhere within this exercise arc.
To get more advice on training, rehabilitation or just general well-being book an appointment to discuss options.

Start a heart week this week and having recently updated my mandatory first aid course, I cannot stress enough how important it is. Have a good week…

You never know when you might find yourself in a situation, but always advisable to keep a cool head.
