Emily takes 3rd place and an epic PB at Ashridge duathlon!
Congratulations to RedAlert PT multisport athlete, Emily, who came third in the Ashridge standard distance duathlon on Sunday. Emily knocked 5 minutes off her previous Ashridge PB despite the fact that Sunday’s bike course was 10km longer than previous years. Making this an astounding achievement. Here is what Emily said right after the event; “Allie’s training plans, coached sessions and…
3rd Place for Tamsyn (V35) at Buntingford 10
Congratulations to RedAlert athlete Tamsyn, who took a third place trophy for the Buntingford 10 despite having an injury which meant she had to ease of the gas for the last couple miles. Excellent work Tamsyn. Tamsyn didn’t realise she had got a trophy until after she had left the race, so a lovely surprise to get this beauty the…
Tamsyn takes a Podium at Herts 5 mile road race Championships
Hatfield 5 Whoop! An unexpected podium in the Herts Vets 35 championship – being very much a triathlete – I never expect running medals so totally chuffed with my third place. I entered this as a fun (and fast) local race to see how much top-end speed I had regained with a years training behind me. The Hatfield 5 last…
Heidi runs Hertfordshire Half Marathon
Hertfordshire Half Marathon 2019, held in the beautiful scenery of Knebworth House, would be the setting for my second ever half marathon (it was also the setting for my first!). It was a slightly warmer day this year, dry after a few days of heavy rain. After some rather amusing group warm-ups with an incredibly enthusiastic PT instructor on the…
Gareth runs Bristol Half and gets a shiney new half mara PB…
When I first met Gareth earlier this year, he was more than a little bit broken (he won’t mind me saying that). He was already a talented runner despite having many issues affecting his gait and biomechanics, and surprising that he is only in his second year of running. He has been working hard on strengthening his weaker areas and…
HSV Sprint Triathlon, Allie
After a year of epic fails when its comes to getting to the start line of races, I was determined to get a 2nd tri in this season, and one where my TT bike could come of the turbo to race for the first time in 3 years. Mission accomplished. Race was fab, enjoyed it all. Swim: terrible time, I…
Allie races Tri again….and about time too!
Boxend Sprint Tri (National champs) My first race as a ‘Tri-Forcer’ (my local tri club) having had 3 years of not really training myself properly (launching RedAlert as a Ltd company, managing my existing client base, building my studio, get married, have a baby, then build 2 storey extension) not surprisingly it’s been difficult to fit enough training in during…
