MH Fitness + Health

My fastest Spartan UK & Ireland Beast to date, despite ankle injury this year holding me back. An almost flawless obstacle race, with only two penalty laps. My strength training shining brightly today.
Thanks Spartan you were epic today. All the volunteers were superb. I tried to thank them all on route

MH Fitness + Health Sports massage clinic is now temporarily shut as building work will start soon and we need the room for storage. Should be open in early October.

Well that went...okay 🥺. Having deferred my last two competition age cat races due to injury I decided to keep this Open event run and have a go. Test things out.
Started off great and held 4 places for 3km. Then it started unravelling.
During the chain carry my bad ankle gave out I fell over and the heavy chain smacked me across the face making me see double for a bit. Thanks to the very kind guys that picked me up, put the chain back on me and ran with me to the end of that obstacle.
Steady pace kept and battled through. A few penalty loops, as I'm an honest Spartan racer. Some improvements
Lovely venue. Well run
Thanks

My clinic will be shutting for a few weeks soon due to building work occuring and getting married.
Doors will temporarily shut between mid July and September.

Another gym day gripping tight and hanging off stuff. Getting ready for this year.

Whilst I'm injured I've been volunteering at A great way to give to my local community. Everyone is super friendly and it's great fun. Every park run runner should give at least one Saturday to do this and give back.

Sometimes we're challenged in our training. Not by the effort but by the forced stop and recovery. Rib injury for me.

We feel guilty if not training; we feel that 'champing at the bit' to start too early; we feel, if competing, that we're running out of time.

Physical recovery is vital when injured. Dealing with the mental aspects of it is often the toughest part. Just know you're doing the right thing and you will be strong again.

Helping is why I started sports massage therapy. I noticed too many injured and as a musician myself thought we need more specialists to assist the industry. Here, in the Horsham, Southwater, clinic I'm set up and knowledgeable to help all players with their unique ailments.
