I contacted Jez initially to lose weight and regain my fitness following years of avoiding exercise. I’m not a fan of gyms and my job doesn’t afford me much time away from my desk so Jez designed the program around road oliie hughes trained by jez mancerrunning and easy to follow exercises I could do at home. Having built up my fitness levels and losing 4 stone in weight I decided to enter the London Marathon 2007. Jez sent weekly training schedules, each week building up distance and included hill and fahrlek training. Any questions I had were answered promptly and the training schedules were sent in plenty of time for me to plan my week. I completed the marathon in 4hrs 47mins.
I am still training with Jez and he has now written me a fresh program to help me improve my speed over short distances and improve my core strength. In 2008 I completed the marathon again knocking 30 mins of my time and I am now determined to break 4 hours!
I found Jez to be perfect for my lifestyle and fitness needs. It has helped me build confidence in my abilities and actually enjoy the exercise.
