Tell us your name. | Sue Simpson |
How and when did you first start running? | I was a member of a gym in Leeds and did the occasional fun run from the gym. I also did the occasional 10K but nothing serious. In 2002 I moved to Harrogate and joined my local running club Harrogate Harriers (boo!). |
What brought you to Nidd Valley? | I finally saw the light and moved to Nidd Valley to be a member of a club which cared about the person and not only what they could win. |
When did you join Nidd Valley? | Early 2016. |
What is your favourite running music? Genre or specific tracks? | None – don’t believe in it, I just concentrate on the running and my whereabouts. |
What is your favourite food before and after running? | Spaghetti Bolognese on the evening before a race, porridge on the morning of the race and poached egg on toast after the race. |
What is your best running tip that you would like to share with us? | Don’t set off too fast and make sure you do plenty of stretches afterwards. |
What is your proudest moment in your running career? | Finishing 3rd lady in the 2014 Algarve half-marathon. |
What are your running goals? | To run as long as possible and learn how not to set off too fast!!! |
What event are you training for at the moment? | As always, my next race. |
