Hope for the injured and muscularly imbalanced: proof that strength training works
If you're injured or are trying to prevent a niggle becoming an injury - I bet you've been given exercises to tackle the issue. And I bet you're finding it really hard to remember to do the exercises regularly enough. I've done something this month that has really...
Gotta love a run in the snow… and a swim
The two times I've been down to the sea this week it was in the hope it might snow while I was down there. Obviously it would be exciting to swim in the sea while it's snowing, but it's also the ultimate way to demonstrate in a photo that we really are swimming in...
Back to marathon training and loving it
I know I've posted a lot recently about swimming, but - confession time - re-posting my 220 Triathlon blog is an easy way of posting a blog. But as well as the swimming, since the autumn I've been trying to become a runner again to prepare for starting to train for...

High-viz clothing – essential in the winter
The clocks have just gone back, its wintery and dark and rainy. So why are so many people still cycling and running without hi-viz clothing? A chap on his bike at about 4pm today wearing black top to toe (even the bike was black) was perfectly camouflaged...

What People Are Saying
You worked wonders in my legs. Needed at sub 1:37 for New York. Ran 1:36.46 at Gosport today. Thank you so much.
I’ve been having massages with Lou for 8 years and always felt better as a result, both before and after racing. She’s a very friendly expert and you can always guarantee restored legs and spirits after a session.
