What is your favourite food for training?
Pizza! I always have one the night before a competition.

What is your ambition in X-Training?
To try & improve my running so I am not always one of the slowest competitors on the treadmill.

What exercise secret would you give a newcomer to X-Training?
I find circuit training classes are very complimentary to x- training. There is also an element of competition in classes which you don't get training alone.
