5 mile run this morning with a client who could only run 1 mile 6 weeks ago. Well on course for a good time in her 10km road race in April.

Great that the mornings are getting lighter now, managed to train clients today before the rain came down.

Blatchford Down, Surrey. My favourite place for more advanced PT, totally stunning.

Keeping hydrated when training in hot weather doesn't mean gulping down cold water or you will get a stitch. Small frequent sips are best.

Much in the news today about the cost to the NHS for treating asthma and diabetes. Exercise can help both, better than prescription drugs.

Yesterdays rain and this mornings sun has brought out the best of Blatchford Downs. So lucky to live close to such wonderful countryside.

Bluebells are out on Ranmore Common, stunning run through the forest this morning.

So proud of Shelly. In her early 60's and had major cancer surgery last year. She just completed a hard circuit and looks and feels great.

[John Roach @JohnroachJohn]

Great idea to have a light snack straight after exercise, a banana or similar is ideal. This replaces used energy and reduces hunger pangs.

[John Roach @JohnroachJohn]

Thunderstorm overhead as I trained with Darren last night. A tad slippery but great fun. Keeping warm is key to a good workout in the rain.

[John Roach @JohnroachJohn]

Many people who are new to training complain of muscular stiffness after a workout. It will soon go but stretching and a hot bath will help.

[John Roach @JohnroachJohn]

First day of spring tomorrow, two new clients to train. Can't wait!

Really pleased to be a new member of Guildford BNI and the opportunities that this will bring.

Great article in the times today. Exercise is essential to ' grow back your brain'. Light exercise 4 times per week is all that is needed.
