Brief Description
Let me pass on my passion and motivation for a fun filled healthy and fit lifestyle. Let me help you adopt a positive mind set with a core belief that you can succeed and will succeed.
My first running goal was to run 5k for charity having not run more than 1500m back in the days of school, that goal grew into a great relationship with running. Some years later i set myself another goal; to run two marathons (Snowdon and New York) in one week. I achieved both goals and each were equally important.
Lets create that fitness goal together, achieve it together and most importantly have fun getting there.

Brief Description
Health and Fitness has been a passion of mine as long as I can remember. My desire to work within the Fitness industry was inspired from involvement in sport and fitness from early childhood, namely gymnastics, trampolining and swimming. These days my fitness regime is about variation, including running, swimming, circuit training and of course Outdoor Fitness.
I don’t believe that being fit and healthy should be a chore; exercise should be part of our lifestyle, therefore it should be fun and enjoyable and something you look forward to. My aim is to provide enjoyable yet challenging sessions and to motivate and encourage you to achieve your fitness goals.
