I started working with Mark a few months ago. We set a target of running a sub 43 minute 10k at Kempton Park on the 3rd of April 2021. Mark's pb stood at 45.37 from early 2020. After a good chat with him I identified some problems with his training and set about devising a plan to smash the 43 minute barrier . I knew Mark was setting a high bar for himself but I thought it was possible if a little risky. Come race day Mark was blessed with perfect conditions and after starting a little fast he came home in an outstanding 42.52! During training we had a few problems which I helped Mark to handle and I was so pleased with the result come race day as was he. We are now continuing to train for a sub 1.35 half marathon..................watch this space!
