About Paul

I first started running as part of my training as a boxer. After that I took up Muay Thai Boxing and fought internationally, representing Scotland in the World Amateur Championships in Bangkok, Thailand in 2004.

I’ve been running Ultramarathons for the last ten years. I’ve completed over fifty ultramarathons and running challenges, ranging from mountain races, 100mile track races, backyard ultras to the 268 mile Spine Race.
In 2022 I won the Welsh four nations Backyard ultra representing England.
I also became the third person to complete a solo unsupported winter Bob Graham round.

Coaching Philosophy

No two runners are the same, everyone has a different lifestyle and commitments. I believe that ordinary people are capable of extraordinary feats, and that living an active lifestyle can transform your life. I believe that these goals can be accomplished whilst balancing family and work life, whilst also enjoying your training. By following our bespoke training plan and making the most of the time you have available you will achieve your goals.
