Our leaders
The people with the flask
Volunteers, every one. They are the ones who say hello when you arrive and make sure nobody finishes alone.
Gary Hughes
Founder and run leader
Started SIM with four mates and a flask. Runs the Monday 5k and makes sure nobody finishes alone.
England Athletics Leader in Running Fitness
Mike Okafor
Strength coach
Twenty years in gyms, most of them teaching people who swore they would hate it. Patient, and very good with dodgy knees.
Level 3 Personal Trainer
Phil Ward
Walk leader
Knows every path for twenty miles and every cafe on them. Leads the Saturday hill walk at a pace that suits the slowest man there.
