Adam Coates

Ultra runner and HH Treasurer. I ran my first half marathon in 1999 and since just jogged the same old flat laps on the road; on average my HM time got a minute slower each year. Then my sister-in-law introduced me to a new local group; the Hucclecote Harriers, and what a joy it has been to discover running with others, I've now beaten my early HM times and embrace running all kinds of routes, distances and tempos. Definitely happiest plodding along on the trails; the longer the better.
