Committee Role - secretary - a little bit of everything (trying to keep Ant organised) and helping out other roles where needed.

Favourite Distance/Event -I love a half marathon as it always feels like a great accomplishment and doesn't have to be too demanding with the training. As far as events go I think The Lap may have it for me. Such amazing views, scenery and aid stations. It completely broke me and I vowed I was done but I've got unfinished business with it and am contemplating a return for my 50th.

How did you hear about the club - I'd been aware of the club for a while having seen them whilst running on my own (i used to do all my running solo). I finally decided to come along to a session with Kirsty Lack and haven't looked back.

Favourite thing about Runners-next-the-Sea - The friendliness and supportive nature of the club no matter what your ability. I used to turn up to events on my own, run and then get in the car and drive home. Having the support before and after races now makes all the difference. I also love the fact that we have such a great mix of runners who target different distances and terrain which allows for some really good advice.

Proudest Running Moment - Being able to help coach a member to achieve their HM PB goal

Favourite Film - The Rock

Favourite Music Genre - In all honesty I like a bit of everything. Rock is my main preference but my Spotify is all over the place. One of my favourites for running to is film scores such as Hans Zimmer and John Williams. Having watched Jaws at a far too early age and having an irrational fear of sharks nothing gets me running faster than the Jaws theme.
