School teacher on a mission 👇🏼 Armagh 5k - 13:47 🍀 Solid run and a class event. Need to work on finishing off races. Managed to keep relatively relaxed in a lively event. A few mental/physical things to tweak in order to make that next jump.

In my experience, having a job can positively impact your running performance… ✔️No sponsor pressure to perform ✔️Less likely to overtrain given time constraints ✔️Greater sense of ‘the bigger picture’ ✔️Reduced psychological impacts of injuries ✔️Reminder it’s a hobby to enjoy

When you work alongside distance running… Training needs to be sustainable over the long term. A recent thought has been to start to base my year around two key races (i.e., two marathons) and therefore have two significant 12 week build-ups for these races…

80-20 rule: average people spend 80% of the time doing things that only give them only 20% return. High performers spend 80% of their time getting 80% return. Steph Curry practices shooting more than defense. Too many runners spend too much time in the 20% return.

Long run with @LloydKempson this AM. Great to hear the thoughts of someone pushing so hard to raise the standards of current track racing events on the UK calendar… the upcoming Comeback 5000 could evolve into something special #goodforthesport

@elliscross96 is a legend. His mum is also an absolute legend. You are lucky if she knows you and comes to support a race you are in… always brimming with positivity! 🙏🏼🙌🏼
"She made the journey down from the Midlands as she always does so making her feel proud was quite a big deal." How @elliscross96 was inspired to beat @Mo_Farah at @London10K by his mum Dawn – who is currently overcoming a brain tumour.

Caught on film. A break from training, kept up the coaching and one eye on the new school year.

One for the commute. Discipline, persistence, humility. 3 traits @MrAllen_PE drills into his students? Why? Because it can take you further than you ever thought possible. @HighgateHarrier

Parkrun is a free and volunteer based event. If you are getting uptight about measurements, then perhaps it’s time to take up swimming indoors instead!

Full Tracksuit Fartlek: 90s on // 90s off Felt good. Got rolling early into the run. Sometimes the body will tell you it’s ready to session and when it’s good to go. Another one bites the dust.

Early morning school clubs present an opportunity to see who your dedicated pupils are. A good foundation for being a great teammate / player

Great discussion on ‘praise’ during teaching training course. Praise needs to help pupils identity how they were successful in attaining goal and not simply acknowledge attainment…

There is a growing number of run clubs in London. Track Mafia, Mafia Moves, Your Friendly Runners, Track Life LDN, Pure Sport Run Club (the list goes on…). Surely events held in the capital would be a safe place to start for increasing spectators @Coggnitooo @LloydKempson

Great read! Inspiring story. 9.93 for the 100m at the age of 30. After taking up the sport at 26. On his own path… … certainly now a sprinter that happens to also be an accountant

How did a 30-year-old full-time accountant who only ran his first race aged 26 become the fastest 100m runner in Europe? Interview with Eugene Amo-Dadzie for @BBCSport on balancing work, starting out late, and his excitement at being drug tested.

In spite of that, today was a special day. 3minutes quicker than the previous year and still having to battle for the British title. A big team goal to chase!

In discussing having goals over a longer period of time with a friend who doesn’t run… “Long-distance running requires longevity, so that 10% is both a preserver of your body and a space to push through” - Stevey Arroyo 👀☝🏼
