Stubbington Green Runners & AC

Glen Street

What's your full embarrassing name? Glen Leslie Street
Married, or are you young, free and single and like to mingle? Married to an Iron Woman, and that doesn't mean she does the ironing !
Where do you live? Titchfield
Do you work or stay at home? Work for Gresham Computing in Warsash.
How long have you been a member at Stubbington? Since 1992, I think.
Can you remember your first race? Might have been Lymington 10km.
How often do you bother to go training? When I feel like it - four times a week at the moment (bet that shocked a few of you!)
What is your favourite training run? Along the cliffs from Titchfield Haven.
What was your best ever race? 68 mins for the Hayling 10 miles - I trained 6 days a week for 8 weeks, then stopped running straight afterward. That's when the injuries started - I shouldn't have stopped.
And what was your worst or most embarrassing race? London Marathon when both calves cramped up at 10 miles, walked/hobbled the rest.
Do you have a pre-race ritual? No.
What is the best piece of gear you have bought? Caroline bought me a heart-rate monitor last year - I can check it's still beating.
Worst piece of gear? Massage stick at Chicago Marathon - hardly used - anyone want it? If I can find it..
Why do you run when you could be sat at home watching EastEnders? I know what's going to happen in EastEnders.
What does she/he who must be obeyed think about your running? Would like me to be injury free for a while - who knows, I may have turned the corner.
What is the one piece of advice you would give to any new runner? Don't run on injuries, get them sorted and come back slowly (difficult, I know).
