What's your favourite 10k?

Favourite marathon?

"Brighton, you can’t beat the atmosphere and support on the day."  

What stops you going for a run?

"To be honest nothing really. Sometimes I procrastinate a lot before going but if I’ve got a run to do 9/10 I’ll get out there whatever the weather."

Worst issue with feet in a race?  

"Probably blisters, but nothing a good compeed can’t sort."

Recommended pre-run foot care routine?

"I normally cut my toe nails a week before a race, and on the day especially if it’s cold outside I’ll spray some deep heat on my feet before a race."

Post run foot care routine? 

"A long soak in the bath followed by magnesium spray on the feet ."

How do you deal with wet shoes? 

"Usually leave them to dry in the sun in my conservatory, they are normally are covered in mud too, if you haven’t got one already I’d highly recommend the 'boot buddy' to clean them up, then into the washing machine!"
