My website has been down for a few days now. I’m not sure what happened, but it looks like I pressed the wrong button and it suddenly crashed and burned. And I’ve been spending all my spare time since trying to fix it. And I think I might have done it! Only bad news is … Read more

I’ve recently started to run group sessions for some office workers (click here if you are interested in something similar) and as usual, a few … Read more
Last Saturday, me and Jo had a go at Urban Attack at the Manchester Velodrome. This is definitely an obstacle “race!” The course is very short (it’s set on the BMX track) and you dash your way round against the clock. The fastest go through to the next round, until the best 15 males and … Read more
