James talks about how he wasnt sporty in school but when he became a dad, he started the fitness journey. Running wasnt his only sport, kick boxing was a big part until he realised that it was better running than being kicked in the face. He talks about how the Tour of Tameside was a big part of his running journey but also how it became an event that broke him a little. James' marathon journey has been emotional, going from 4:16 to 3:01 with sub 3 on the cards. He tells us about how he wants this sub 3 so bad! James has PB'd across the board in recent months and he has put it all down to being coached.
