What a morning for the Belfast Half! Looking forward to cheering on all those on my roster and the #DreamRunDublin team!

And back at it once again! First day in the gym since the early summer due to a sacral stress fracture!
Don't they say it's a marathon and not a sprint?!

Great morning coaching some of the #DreamRunDublin squad round a tough progressive 8 x mile with 400m float session.
Consistency is building, fitness is improving, the countdown to the @dublinmarathon is on!

Back in my happy place! Looking a bit more scorched at the moment though.

Dream Team back together!!
Great morning chatting about memories, coaching, comebacks, the future and much much more.
Let's not leave it too long until the next time @AndrewJamesHobd.

Let's go @GoTeamNI!

Another great day yesterday coaching this year's #DreamrunDublin group. One of my favourite sessions - tempo, hills, tempo, hills.
Some very relieved faces when it was all over!
Thanks to @ACTISNACK and @dublinmarathon for the continued support.

The results are in!!
Congratulations to everyone who was successful in the @LondonMarathon ballot! You're in for a very special experience and memories that will stick with you - as mine have from 2014.
Anyone considering coaching, simply get in touch - ppmarathon.com
Probably one of the rarest sights in the animal kingdom - me in a swimming pool!
With another day in the 40s though, it would have been rude not to. One length and done!

40+ degrees heat just added to the electric atmosphere at the start of today's @LeTour stage.
Inspiring stuff! Often wondered what my indoor cycling legs could do on the road, if only I wasn't so scared of the descents!

Great to catch up with this year's #DreamRunDublin group for a tasty Sunday morning session! All progressing very nicely.

Great to catch up with Ronan at @Replay_Physio yesterday.
He was invaluable in my journey back to running again post achilles surgery. For anyone looking for a physio I couldn't recommend him highly enough.

Still get goosebumps looking back at all the photos and videos!
Happy Olympic Day!

Not too long until @Glasgow_2026 Commonwealth Games.
After being selected for 3 Commonwealths as an athlete, my fourth will involve wearing a coaching hat!
Great networking with some of @_SportNI top coaches last week and hearing from the various sports.
@AthleticsNI @GoTeamNI
And just like that, the pbs for the 2026 #DreamRunDublin group have already started rolling in, this time over 10k!
First stepping stone to what will hopefully be another successful year at the Dublin marathon!

Another month of up and down training but such is life! Progress may be slow but progress is still being made.
#slowlyslowly #onlywayisup
The 23rd May will always be a date ingrained in my head. The date that I found out that a young lad from Belfast would make his Olympic dream!

After months of learning, study and reflection, delighted to say I've submitted my Level 3 @irishathletics Performance Coaching portfolio.
Grateful for all the support, the mentors, networking and journey so far!
Hopefully, it is still just the beginning!
