*Monthly roundup!*
September kicked off with George proving that sometimes one sport isnβt enough, completing his first ever triathlon in style by finishing 10th in his AG. ππ΄π
On the trails Dewi came back from injury to take on the Scafell Pike ultra, with a clear list of βI will stop ifβ β sadly an ankle injury ticked off *all* the rules so he called it early. SUPER proud of him for listening to his body (and coach!) π«Ά
Over at the CDF 10k it was a full house of PBs! Huge well done to S&C client Sue, and Lorraine and Al β who took his 5km PB to boot! π

In more 10ks, Charlie broke the hour for the first time at the Worcester 10k, while Ash skipped (not literally) his way around Swansea Bay 10k, the day after his longest marathon run. π¦π
In others doing the back to back race double, Andrew ran his first half in a while at New Forest Half, while Ben showed us what hills really looked like at the Ladybower Reservoir half. π
It was more PBs for Ben D and Ben SJ at Cheltenham half, with Ben D taking 18 mins off and Ben SJ going sub 1:18! George ran a blinder a few weeks post-tri to come comfortably under his goal time too. π

Something in the water (pun intended) with our triathletes, with Lou completing her next (!) tri as well as the Big Half. π»
Jen P and S&C client Leanne ran the Bristol-to-Bath marathon, with Jen getting a PB and Leanne running her second fastest! Incredible result after a laundry basket based mishap earlier in the weekβ¦ π
Been a busy few weeks for Jen D, who beat her goal time in her 10 mile race and then hotfooted it to Chicago to soak up the atmosphere and run the half. πββοΈ
In the Personal Training Pod, we did a class favourite - a max deadlift/squat session. Across all classes, we lifted 1380kg! (about the weight of a hippo... π¦)
And I completed my first 100 miler in the Cotswold Way Century! A huge thanks to all the supporters who appeared mid-run. Special shout out also to S&C client Sorin who ran 120 km the same weekend. Between us, we covered 285 km / 178 miles...
Another epic month, well done whether you're racing, training, lifting - or like Sorin and myself, sitting down and putting your feet up ππ«
