95 days apart. Same person. Different standards.
I wanted to talk this one through properly, not just post a before and after and move on.

I’ve coached for over four years now and I’ve had periods where I’ve been locked in and periods where I haven’t.

I’m not interested in hiding behind old photos, medals, or past shape.

This is me documenting doing the work again, in real time.
Over summer, I took my foot off the gas.
Two cracking holidays. Life ticking along.

But if I’m honest, no real direction and no clear plan.
I also had some personal stuff going on, which is settled now and I’m in a much better headspace because of it.

Then I threw the Great North Run into the mix. I hadn’t run properly since May, got ill for a couple of weeks, picked up niggles, and at one point had a perianal abscess which you don’t train through lads, trust me.

Looking back, I should’ve listened sooner. Deloaded properly. I’d overdone things heading into summer and never really earned the recovery.
So this isn’t a perfect journey.

But this is what happened when I stopped floating and got consistent again. Not extreme. Not obsessed. Just doing the basics properly, day after day.

Right now, I’m close to the best condition I’ve been in. Training performance is flying. I’m enjoying it again. Life’s good. Head’s good.

And that matters, because I’ve got two big things coming in 2026 that I’ll be announcing mid-January.
I don’t even know yet if they’re possible — but I know I’m in the right place physically and mentally to find out 🤝

90 DAYS DIFFERENCE

Bit of an essay, but it’s a heavy one from Con.

I wanted to post this to be completely honest and transparent, to show my own journey and doing the work again. I’ve been known in my time to have the odd off period here and there across the last four plus years as a coach.

I’m documenting this just to be transparent, not to hide behind filters or past glories like medals, photoshoots, and so on. Sometimes my downtime has been about focusing more on the business, but this time it’s about this.

Over summer, I took my foot off the gas.
Two cracking holidays and other bits

Personally, I had some problems as well,but that’s all settled now and I’m in a much better headspace on that front.

Then, I had a week off either side of the Great North Run. I got ill pretty badly for a couple of weeks and had a perianal abscess at one point. Probably TMI, but it’s not pleasant people. You can’t train with one, put it that way.

And I had numerous niggles that realistically just needed a break.

It didn’t help chucking the Great North Run in when I hadn’t actually run properly since May down Leeds for the half marathon, and two weeks before that I’d ended up in an ambulance in Manchester during the marathon due to a stomach infection.

Quite the year.

Looking back, I should’ve adhered to deloads and listened to the warning signs. I’d just overdone things in the run up to my first holiday at the end of June. I was in good shape, that was documented in a photoshoot around then, but I hadn’t earned the recovery properly.

After the first holiday, it wasn’t long until the next. I didn’t really push myself, didn’t have much of a goal. I was just floating with little direction and no real plan.

But now...

Consistent and doing the work again.

I’m probably close to the best condition I’ve been in. I feel very good. Life’s good. Mental health is good.

Now life is good, training performance is through the roof. Genuinely loving it again.

And this matters, because I’ve got two massive things coming in 2026 that I’ll be announcing mid January.

I’m not even sure they’re possible yet, but I know I’m in the right place physically and mentally to find out 🤝
