HOW I TRAIN
Helen Davies
Long-distance runner Helen was selected to compete for England twice – 10 years apart and after a break to have children. Now that’s staying power!
Helen is a familiar face at the Brighton Marathon
How did you get into running?
I discovered running in my mid 20s. I was renting and I couldn’t afford the gym, so I started running because it was free and accessible. I carried on until a friend persuaded me to do a 10K in 2003. I finished third lady and was like ,“Okay, I can do this!”
