June Injection of GRACE!


GROW GRACEFULL

Your monthly infusion of good stuff

Hello Reader,

Happy half-year day! Only 178 days until Christmas! 😅Seriously though, I hope all's well with you all and you're feeling satisfied with everything you've achieved so far this year. And if not... perhaps show yourself some Grace?!

I'm feeling a good amount of grace (root meaning = gratitude) after another full but fun month. I got to go on a special Nordic road trip to Oslo 💎, Stockholm 💎and Turku 🌍 to watch some of my boyfriend's athletes compete; interview winners at a couple of BMC Grand Prixs; do a presentation about AI in Athletics and deliver a workshop teaching physios, PT's and coaches how to analyse technique.

As ever, read on for up-coming events and hidden discounts🤫. Be great to connect...

Go Gracefully,

I'm still very much down the AI rabbit hole and have started to play with 'deep research'. Here's 24 page the output from the prompt asking about how running technique changes over distance and terrain. For a more user-friendly version, have a look at this Gemini generated:

This month on the Grow Stronger programme we looked at Breathing, Competition Nutrition, Winning Deep and Happiness. For full copies of the presentations and recordings feel free to contact me.

Lots of powerful insights into how women's physiology is different to men's:

Plus other running-inspired, evolving playlists:

Rehab

Lack of strength and conditioning is one of the top 3 reasons people get injured (together with progressing too quickly and not recovering enough). Tick that 💪 box with our 20min, running-specific workouts. Option 2 is for dodgy knees (or if you're tired).

This month we have dumbbells and plyos (plus activation and stretch)

Any young athletes starting out with S&C, check out our online weekly sessions with live coaching to guide you towards growing strong, health foundations.

I will be doing a running technique, S&C and functional movement workshop at Woodbank Stadium in Watford before the BMC Grand Prix on 12th July. I'm still finalising plans, but it will be around 3-5pm. I'll announce definite details on social media imminently.

Interested?

I can do one at your club too if you want...
