17 October 2011 Congratulations to all the runners in yesterdays Cardiff
half marathon!
8 October 2011 Mark has just finished a series of running workshops in
Run and Become in Cardiff in the run up to the Cardiff half marathon.
Mark was joined by Personal Trainer John Bruno and Physiotherapist
Karen Pearce to provide advice to the half marathon runners on running
injuries, run technique, nutrition, mind focus and general run training
advice.
22 August 2011 Mark represented Great Britain yesterday at the European
Long Distance Triathlon Champs in Finland. Mark raced well and came
11th in his age group, an excellent result!
4 July 2011 Delme provided sports massage at the Youth & GB
triathlon champs at Porthcawl on Sunday. He was a busy man, with the
young guns taking advantage of the pre & post event sports massage.
28 March 2011 Mark raced the Pembrokeshire duathlon yesterday and
managed to crack the top 10 with a great 9th place! Well done!
11 February
2011 Yesterday Mark attended a running coaching clinic to train
existing running coaches new skills and techniques inline with the
Newton running company's philosophy of Natural Running. It was the
first clinic of this type to be held outside of the USA. Mark was lucky
enough to pass and is now only 1 of 12 Newton Natural Running Form
coaches in the UK. Mark will now add those new skills & techniques
to south Wales and incorporate them into our own hugely successful
Learn To Run workshops.
