Let’s get this page going, please

I have been asked to

“START AN INITIATIVE TO FIND THE COACHES WHOM OUR MEMBERS THINK DO RECOGNISE THE DIFFERENCES IN ATHLETES AS THEY GET OLDER AND HAVE ADAPTED THEIR TRAINING TECHNIQUES FOR THIS.”

Clearly a list of such coaches could be beneficial. The question “I’m just getting back into/taking up athletics at the age of 40/50/60, where do I go to find a coach? ” which is asked quite often could be answered from such a list.

Are you such a coach? I’d love to hear from you. Would you be happy to share your insights into the skills you have? Would you like more athletes in your training group? Please email aessex@bmaf.org.uk with your details

Does your coach recognise the special needs of your mature status? Please let me know who he/she is. Please email aessex@bmaf.org.uk with the necessary details.
