Getting Massage to Help You Run Your Marathon

It is easier to succeed at your marathon with good preparation.  Some people take on their big run with a bit of a Gung-Ho approach and have a great run and that is fantastic.  For most people this won’t work and they will collect injuries and struggle.

Training will ensure marathon success – it’s time soon to apply for next year’s London Marathon, start preparing now. You can download training schedules from the Virgin London Marathon website.

As well as building your training slowly and sensibly you should alter your nutrition.  Hard working bodies need good quality food to power them and to build and repair muscles.  Above all find yourself a well qualified Remedial Massage professional, get recommendations from my governing body, the ISRM.

If you live in Cambridgeshire come and see me. I am always thrilled to see a client through the process. It is much better to keep your muscles in good condition with regular massage, I can find potential injury sites in your muscles before they even become a problem. It is much easier to avoid injury than to try and recover from one. I have a wealth of advice and experience (and my own cherished medal so you know I have shared your pain).

Mostly people come to see me when they are on the verge of giving up on their running because they are plagued by injury. It is a fantastic thing to work  together with a client in this situation,  get them back to training and even, as has happened, see them achieve a personal best in their marathon, but don’t take a chance with your big event. Come and see me and together we will see you run your best marathon!
