Into the second week of training for the Birmingham Half Marathon, I suffered an injury leaving me out of action for a number of weeks. I was, nonetheless determined to give it my best shot and enlisted Amahl's help. I started training with only 4 weeks to race day and at this point, I still had a minor limp. Amahl was patient and encouraging, allowing me to build up my physical fitness. He provided me with advice on everything from running technique, the right diet and how to keep myself motivated throughout a long distance run. I ran the half marathon and completed in a time of 2 hours and 20.
I don't think that I would have been able to achieve this without Amahl and I can't speak highly enough of him. He is professional, highly knowledgeable and an all round great guy. With his help I was able to recover my confidence and realised that I was actually capable of more than I was giving myself credit for.
