Here is someone who inspires me - My eldest daughter Laura, who like all my children, inspires me greatly.
This picture was taken last weekend when she took part in her first triathlon.

Long distance adventures by foot
About Me
- Luke Taylor
- Bristol, United Kingdom
- I'm married (to Suzi) with three children (Laura 11yrs, Helena 8yrs and Felix 6yrs), and I work as an Assistant IT Director. I started triathlon in 2004, with a few sprint tri's, moved on to Olympic distance events in 2005 & 2006, and since then have moved on to complete 3 half-Ironman distance triathlons, two marathons and XTerra UK (a tough off-road triathlon). My first ultramarathon race was the VoTwo ONER - A tough 80mile foot race along the rugged Dorset Jurassic Coast. This blog will keep a record of my long distance running adventures.
Drop bag list
- Running kit (trainers, socks, compression tights, shorts, tee-shirt / tri top, warmer top, waterproof kagool)
- Head torch with spare batteries

- Sun cream

Current tips to remember...
- Up the weights for hamstring curl and leg extension to realise 10 reps per set
- Use both legs for leg press
- More glutes stretches and ITB roller work
- Use bent leg stretch for Soleus
- Probably better to do 2 weights sessions per week (not consecutively) for 4-6 weeks
