Been busy working away at this for the past little while and delighted to pass my final exam today.

Another string added to the bow to accompany my UK Athletics Coach in Running Fitness qualification.

Never stop learning. Always try to be better.

So you’re one of the lucky 300 and you’ve got through the ballot for the 2027 West Highland Way Race.

Now it’s time to actually put together a plan that’s going to get you from Milngavie to Fort William next June.

What’s the biggest concern you have right now?

Drop us a message and let’s have a chat about it.

If you’ve thrown your hat into the ring for the West Highland Way Race this year then you’re probably starting to feel the nerves as the ballot draw gets nearer. I know. I’ve been there myself.

Will my name get drawn? What if it does? Can I actually do it? How will I get people to crew me? How will I manage logistics? How will I train for such a big distance?

The first time I ran the race in 2018, I had no idea about how the crewing logistics would work and how I was supposed to ask anyone for help for a whole weekend.

Since that first race, I’ve been back nearly every year since either running, marshalling, supporting or checking in on coached athletes as they make their way from Milngavie to Fort William. I’ve seen all weathers and runners from all backgrounds take on the race of a lifetime and I imagine I’ll be back again in some capacity in 2027. There’s few places I’d rather be on race weekend.

Drop me a message if you want to chat about your race.

Not every race goes to plan, but it’s often said you learn more from your failures than your successes.

Here’s how to deal with disappointment so that it doesn’t drag you down and armours you for future events.

Another medal Monday for Vicky, this time at the Glasgow Half Marathon.

No performance or time pressures for this one (although I think the fancy new top probably shaved a few minutes off). Just a focus on finishing and having fun which is sometimes just what you need.

Well done Vicky. You’ll be needing to build a house extension soon so you have enough medal hanging space.

I think a lot of people can find the idea of coaching a bit overwhelming and a step into the unknown. How does it even work? How will it work for me and my life? What if I’m not good enough to be coached? What if the expectations are too high?

I know this because this is exactly how I felt when I first looked into being coached, so I wanted to lay things out nice and simply so there’s no secrecy or gatekeeping. It’s a simple process. No fancy words or terminology. Just 4 steps beginning with a casual conversation about you and what you want to get out of your running. No obligation. No minimum terms.

If it’s something that sounds good to you then let’s have a chat.

Every event is going to challenge you but some are more challenging than others. A tough day out for Donna on the Ochils at the weekend, with some navigational bumps in the road, but the finish line shows up for everyone that refuses to quit. Bloodymindedness and a strong second half made sure that she got her medal, despite various obstacles. I always like to say that you learn more from the hard days out than the easy ones and this one was definitely the former.

Since her last race at the Devil in April, Donna has been training consistently and we’ve tried to keep the training weeks fresh and fun whilst juggling an ever-changing work calendar, grandparent duties, race marshalling, race crewing, club runs and socials. Might give her a week off to recover after that race though. Lots more to come before 2027!
