• “Hi Katherine, I had meant to let you know - got round injury free in 1hr 31mins so very pleased. It feels like the injury has vanished. I'm still stretching and strengthening. Thanks!“Ben R, Wimbledon after Great North Run, 2010.

• “ Whilst with Katherine I made a successful return to track racing in May at 5000m (15mins29secs) later improving to 14mins 38 secs by August. I also raced over 10k and half Marathon in the early autumn. Regarding my training; my long runs increased to in- excess of 2 hrs without any symptoms of the previous injuries. Whilst I was able to sustain the intensity of fast 1 miles reps x 6 with a short recovery.
  
  I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, Katherine, for your treatment advice and support.” KK, Elite distance runner.

• “I finished the Bristol half in 1:40 mins, which I was very pleased with, thanks for getting me back on my feet ...it was 20 minutes off my time from the Great North Run. Thanks again.” Runner.
