It’s a well-worn cliché that exercise is good for the mind, emotions and body. I have been a member of the gym at Keele for ten years, and I organise and participate in the twice weekly staff football game. If you see someone wandering round campus with a bag of bibs and footballs, chances are it’s me. And I can testify that it’s cliché for a good reason.

Double Down on Lockdown

I want to be of more use and am in awe and admiration of friends in the NHS or schools or supermarkets preparing for a coming storm. I pray more than usual at the moment. But athletics is what I do, so as far as I can I will keep doing it, taking things day by day like on training camp.

I get active because it not only helps my body to feel better, but my mind too.
