Hello and welcome to my website. I have three major passions in life – marathon running, cooking and eating good food. Over my years of marathon training, I have developed a range of imaginative, nutritionally-balanced and energy-boosting recipes to complement any training programme, whether you’re a first-time half-marathon runner or an experienced athlete.

All athletes, serious and recreational, have unique nutritional demands. Achieving your personal best is not just about training hard. What, when and how much you eat can have a dramatic effect on your stamina, performance and recovery.

This website aims to add a little zest to your training programme, translating sound sports nutrition theory into practical advice and tasty recipes to help you achieve your full potential. With a smile on your face and a properly fuelled body you can push yourself that extra mile, faster.

My new book, Go Faster Food, published by Vermilion, is now available. You can to buy it in all good bookshops, on Amazon and of course, on this website. Just click on the recipe page or my blog for a taster, or sign up for free regular recipes and my exclusive tips on eating for better athletic performance.
