How Long Can You Afford to Not Exercise?

Quite often we can get caught up in the ‘now’ and don’t consider ‘later’. My back is only a bit sore NOW but I can manage, I don’t have time to exercise NOW I have to look after the kids, I don’t have the energy to do anything right NOW, the doctor says my blood pressures isn’t too high for NOW, …  

But when does it become TOO LATE? 

Your back pain will stop you from being a great parent LATER, You’ll have even less time to exercise LATER, Your blood pressure will be too high and need to be medicated LATER, you won’t be the parent you want to be  LATER.

How long can you really afford to not take action? How will doing nothing impact your quality of life now and into the future?

  • City2Surf: The Inside Running

    With a lot of my clients currently preparing for the City2Surf I thought it would be pertinent to pass on some of my advice as a former distance runner turned sprinter on some of the do’s and don’ts of the world’s most popular fun run.

    I first competed in the City2Surf when I was 16. I was fortunate to enough to be sponsored by the Department of Sport and Recreation and it was quite the adventure travelling to Sydney for the first time by plane from Gunnedah.

    That year I made a lot of mistakes but still managed a great time of 51mins 15secs especially when I enjoyed the luxury of a preferred start position. The race record is 40mins 3secs set by Steve Moneghetti in 1991 (see picture above). Since then I have run the race a further 5-6 times with all times under 60mins. I think running under 60mins from the back of the pack is harder than 51min from the preferred start line! It’s not easy running on the gutter for 14km to avoid the crowds and prams. That said, if you know a few tricks you can save yourself a lot of time and energy. Here is my breakdown of how to run a strong City2Surf time:
