16th at the @spartanrace sprint world championships!!
With this being possibly one of the most stacked races of the year, I knew this was gonna take a really good effort to achieve my goals.
My goals going into the race:
Donāt drown šāļø
Make my spear āļø
Try and be in the top 20 of the worldās best āļø
This is my highest ever result at a championship race and now Iām really hungry to push on from this and come back even fitter next year! But before that, itās time for a little rest š
1st place @spartanraceuk national series sprint race š
The only goal today was to leave everything out there and I feel that was achievedāļø
Spear was about half way through the race and as soon as I got it in I moved as fast has I could go the finish line, securing my first ever Spartan race win!
To top it off, this cemented my 2nd place position in the overall series š„. I couldnāt quite compete with @tommytruns this year but Iāve definitely closed the gap a little š congrats on your year š
Itās been a great year with some fun battles, two races left for me now and then itās time for a little break (itās well needed š“)
Next stop Croatia šš· for the @spartanrace sprint world championships š
šBritish championš
My post race recap will come soon but for now Iām just gonna enjoy this one!
The usual thanks to @rumblefitness_uk and @_accountabilitycorner for the supportāŗļø
Also thanks to @chiarazeolla_ and my family for constantly standing in mud for me š

6th at the @spartanraceuk London west beast national series raceš¢ starting a little too hard and payed the price š« see you in Scotland for the next one!
4th place at the ocr British champs long course š« I came to win but unfortunately my body had other ideasš³ calf cramp ended up creeping in with 3 miles to go, I tried to fight but it just got worse and worse I still feel like Iām in great shape but nuclear and me never seem to gel š¤ now time to recover and get ready for @spartanraceuk next weekend!
Itās time to get to know the men behind the athletes of our Elite male team š¬š§
You know their names but do you ACTUALLY know them as people? Learn their favourite things about Spartan Race, what inspires them, and who they are away from the course.
1st place š„ @tartan_warrior
Weather was horrendous but I guess thatās good character buildingš«
Took the race out hot and lead from start to finish! I know the running was there, so todayās game plan was to run hard and not fail anything and thatās exactly what happened!
Itās nice to finally win this race, Iāve always came so close in the past but never executed it properly. Congrats to @gavinhogarthocr and @walshy4972 on there podium finishes š
Now time to switch the training a little to get ready for the @spartanraceuk season š and a final big shout out to @kirkdewindtpt for keeping me honest all winter(I know it can be a hard task š«£)š¤£
2nd place at the OCR 3km British championshipsš„
@tartan_warrior@britishobstaclesports
Not the result I was looking for but a slip on the balance beam cost me a little bit too much time and I just couldnāt make the time back š¤·āāļø
Ready to go again tomorrow and try and make less mistakes!
Great battle with @hunterasintohunt yesterday at Duel! @theobstaclegym put on a great event and it was just what I needed to get the rust off ahead of @tartan_warrior š« was nice to come away with the overall win as well š
