Something fundamental but often overlooked that helps me to perform in my own running is my support network - especially my inner circle.

Louise and the kids are my biggest cheerleaders but I also have my coach Jonny Mellor, my Dad and brothers and am lucky to have lots of running friends, clients and podcast listeners that push me on too.

In this episode, I explore why it's important to have a strong circle and the concepts of 'the sum of the 5 people you spend most time with' and 'plus, equals, minus' - surrounding yourself with teachers, peers and students.
