Fiona Kelly's Experiences of running.......


 Fiona Kelly

 
Favourite race: Still looking!

Why? : I really prefer cross country
Preferred distance: half marathon or 10k
Preferred Surface: cross country
All your race times: slow / dead slow
What motivated you to start running: being fat
How many years have you been running: about 5

Do you prefer running on your own or in a group: I like running with my friend Donna and our Dogs, happy to run alone, but it can be a bit boring!
Why: I love being outside and I live in a beautiful area
How do you prepare for your race the night before: Ideally with steak and chips and a large glass of red. I am avoiding sea food pasta after my unpleasant bottom clenching experience at the East London half marathon. Portaloos are not nice!
Do you carbo load before a race: What ?
If so, what is your eating plan:n/a
What do you use to fuel yourself during your long runs: Buy some poncey shot gels or if I’m taking water with me I use zeros. I’m not sure if they do any good.
What is your post run meal: Champagne
Do you run with music: Not anymore
If no why: I have 2 dogs and the little one’s naughty so I have to be aware of my surroundings!
If you could give any advice to someone just starting out running what would it be: Its not complicated, go at your own pace then challenge yourself.
What trainer’s would you recommend: I use Saucony for muddy conditions and ACSIS for road

Who do you admire the most in the world of running: I spread my admiration quite widely in races, it keeps me going.
