Ardent Run Club: Episode 40 - Adrian Bailes - British Champs Dreams

On this episode, Tomi speaks with Adrian Bailes of Birtley AC. Adrian has been running for almost 20 years and in the last few years has improved his times massively. He focuses on middle distance events but isn't afraid of throwing down in longer races.

Adrian tells us about his journey from being a young runner who couldn't win to becoming an adult with a few big race wins. He talks about how his love for running made it easy for him to persevere and how that persevarance has paid off.

We talk about the good races and the bad, the fun and the embarrassing, but we focus in on how it has helped Adrian improve in the long run (pun...intended..)

Adrian has goals to compete in the British Champs in the 1500m once he returns to full fitness after his injury. We talk about the training he has done to get to this point - the sessions and weekly breakdowns - and we talk about what he needs to improve on in the next stage of his running to reach the champs.

Adrian is full of fun and motivation, so make sure you listen in!

We hope you learn something, we hope you get inspired and we hope you Find Your Fire.
