About Me

My name is Liam and I am a runner. Running has been a part of my life since the end of 2016 and I have grown and improved so much since then. The plan is to continue this journey and document some of the steps and knowledge I gain along the way. This might help others but at the very least I would hope to gain a better understanding of the training I do and the things I try to improve my ability to run. There is always room to improve and with some ambitious goals ahead I still have plenty of room room to grow.

I think running is a sport that can suit anyone. You don’t need to spend a lot of money on equipment (at least initially) and you don’t need a special field or arena to do it. Anyone can lace up their shoes and run along the road even just for a kilometre. And I believe as long as you are running to the best of your ability you are a true runner, and never let anyone tell you otherwise.

I have always enjoyed cooking but since I have started running, I began to take the food I ate a bit more seriously and I plan to document some of that along the way as well. Maybe share some recipes that I enjoy or general food tips that I have come across.
