Well that is the 2022 season done with, I’m extremely proud of myself for persevering after a constant 4 years of injuries, from back & obliques, to groin and then the elbow, but that’s in the past, this was a real comeback season for me and I got more than I was expecting a few new pbs, and a more consistent set of throws, something I’d wanted for an extremely long time and didn’t think I’d achieve. I’ve been self coached for a long time now. But my goal for winter in to seek advice from the wide range of new coaches/friends I’ve met this year to help get my confidence back and progress into the 2023 season. As well as training myself “full time” I’ve also been constantly working to help others, this year has been by far the most insane year for myself and my throwers. We have gone above and beyond what I ever thought was possible, especially for me, a few years ago i didn’t think I deserved to be at big events as coach of anything I avoided “chit chat” This year it really became clear that I have every right to be there. I’ve traveled to Finland after the 3rd invite, but not having the confidence to travel, and there is plenty more to come. @beneast_ I started working with Ben when we was 10, starting with a fone javelin in the sports hall. And then with the 400g on the runway. A young lad that just enjoyed throwing a stick. But was very determined to put the work in to get it further. Fast forward 8+ years. Ben achieved not only him England vest but also his @teamgb vest. An 18 year old, coached by a 26 year old, both from small towns @penny__post @newburytoday , competing for a local athletics club (team kennet) on a track In the middle of nowhere it’s just amazing! @cazmaz06 Brandon who finished his U17 season with a throw of 44.95 Brandon is a valuable member to the group. Constantly supporting others William finished his u13 season with a throw of 37m! James finished his season with a throw of 43.96 But to all that have given me advice and continued support this year with both myself and my group I give thanks. @cherylangell @westberkshireinjuryclinic @throwshub_official @javdad75 (at Newbury, Berkshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci8TOhQoUpe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
