One Man One Bike One Dream!

Decaman is my dream! We all have them and we may sometimes play them over in our minds. Personally I am always seeking out new challenges to continue the exploration and adventure into unchartered territory. To push the limits of human endurance and move beyond physical exhaustion to the other side! What is waiting there for me I want to find out. To continue the journey at any cost............Today I will run long and I will run free................................

Its All In The Hills..............

Today I aim to suffer. On Sundays some people like to go long! One of my favourite sessions of the week is hill training because I like to suffer. The next 2 days are all about overload. This afternoon I will hit my favourite climb and complete a 1 hour session. Tomorrow I will run a 10 mile time trial to see where I am with speed. Then it is back to pure endurance................................Live it................

White Line Fever!

I had one of those runs this morning. Endless amounts of energy and a desire to suffer at the mercy of speed. Conditions were near perfect with clear skies and an unusually hot humid temperature. The decision was made to go for it. It felt strange at times because fatigue never arrived so arriving home at exactly 3am I was calmly satisfied that I need to run further...............The time has arrived to push on and push on I will............."Its Time To Suffer".........I am ready!!

Normal Is Boring...

I am drawn To Extremes, moderation bores me, I constantly seek challenges and adventure that loom on the outer edges. The path of least resistence is a route I will never take! If I can inspire one person to train then my job is done!! Anything is possible, you just have to make it............

The Lorries Rumble on.........

Double ride day over it was a scorcher at lunchtime and then couldn't be more contrasting riding through the night. Perfect conditions for both rides, a cyclists dream! Riding at midnight, warm conditions and clear open roads, just the rumble of passing lorries breaking the silence! It is most definitely my favourite time to train. Tonight I will be running through the night again. It seems like a long road to Mexico but with 2 marathons already booked for November there will be no let up!!!

The Only One Who Can Tell You "You Can't" Is You! And You Don't Have To Listen....

Today I will ride. How far dosen't matter, how fast dosen't matter. Tomorrow I will run through the night.........Nothing can stop me..............."The Bold Don't Live Forever But The Timid Don't Live At All"

Overload Time.............

The next few days will see two sessions a day completed with an emphasis on the bike tomorrow. Ride 1 will see a steady 50 miles followed by a fast hours ride at midnight! Day time and night time riding with a break in between..............Its time to push on before my second run through the night............."Adversity introduces a man to himself".......
