London Marathon : 2011 NDCS Charity Work 17 April

"Hi team!
 
I just wanted to say a massive thank you for all of your hard work yesterday – it was great to meet you all and the feedback we’ve received from runners has been fantastic. It really does make such a difference to all of them and our post race reception wouldn’t have been half the success it was without you."

 

Two Sports Massages - Two Personal Bests

"This year I had two sports massages, one the week before the Sheffield Half marathon in April and one before the Great Eastern run in October and on both occasions achieved a personal best so I was really pleased and would recommend Sue to all runners who want to boost their performance.

I had 10 weeks out with hamstring and calf muscle injuries but with a combination of remedial massage and nutritional supplements I am now fully fit and seem to be going from strength to strength. Thank you Sue I couldn't have done it without you and your enthusiasm and professionalism!!"

 ANDY C. Thorney - Sports Massage & Sports Nutrition 2010

"I got my official times back... 622 in 1:41:21 which is roughly 2 mins faster than last year and a minute faster than my previous pb I'm very pleased."

Chris S. Peterborough - Sports Massage

"I was very impressed. No noticable affect early on, but still felt strong after the 6 mile point. Did a time of 1hr 51min, which was same as last year but I had done a lot less training. I will certainly use it again, as see how it works with my cycling."

Richard S.  Peterborough (GER) - Solstic Energy

"I'm on the TNT - it's been sustaining me between training bouts! I felt it took an awful lot of energy to keep my legs from buckling.  I took some TNT about 45 minutes before the start and feel this helped me to keep the miles going during the time my legs were giving me jip.  Took some protein afterwards to try and start the repair process.  I'm happy with this, as my aim was to break 90 mins "

"Sue's Energy and Enthusaism are Second-to-none"

Beyond Expectations ***** 

" After running the London Marathon in 2006 I struggled for over a year with achilles and back problems also a weight gain through lack of running, I could only walk downstairs one step at a time and was so stiff in the mornings i would hobble for the first ten minutes, i went to see Sue Burnett and over a period of time she has transformed my running life, i now have zero achilles pain i jog up and down the stairs no problem and am now starting to increase my distance and speed running. I joined Sue's exercise and nutrition programme and now no longer feel slow and lethargic, i feel energised and enjoy being on the go and have seen a steady weight loss, i would highly recommend Sue as she is very caring, understanding and professional and is not out to profit from your problems, she genuinely cares.

Power Lifting I don't Think So"

Beyond Expectations ***** 

 "After a year of shoulder and back pain following an attempt to lift a rack of very heavy equipment on my own which impacted on my Running, Badminton and Guitar playing. I eventually had to give up badminton in October as too painful. I tried Sue almost as a last resort. The improvement in mobility has been great and the ongoing improvement with each visit has been maintained. Restarted Badminton last week and have lost the constant pain which is now down to the odd twinge. Thumbs up for hands on. "

"Marathon Success"

Beyond Expectations *****

Whilst training for my first Marathon I developed Achilles Tendinitis, which restricted my training and put a bit of a damper on the whole affair. Sue saved the day; on our first session she quickly diagnosed my symptoms, proscribed and implemented the treatment and gave me a set of stretching exercises to follow. Sue was so good that the following morning I was able to walk with ease, whereas previous mornings my ankles would have been too painful to walk. Keep up the good work Sue!"

"Hamstring Problem No More! "

Beyond Expectations ***** 

I first went to Sue for some treatment following a hamstring injury which I picked up after running a local race. From the start I was impressed with Sue's professionalism and knowledge and she was also able to fit me in at very short notice as I was in quite a bit of discomfort! Sue really does tailor the treatment to each individual and always ensures you feel comfortable throughout the treatment process. She takes the time to find out what your goals are and works with you to achieve them offering some very useful tips and guidance along the way. I also liked the fact that you don't just have the treatment and leave but that Sue gives you exercises to take away and practise in between treatments which really helps the healing process. Sue most definitely helped me recover from my hamstring injury and have no hesitation in recommending her for treatment!"

Sheila H - Orton Longueville

 

"IT Band Buster"

Beyond Expectations ***** 

Too much running and not enough stretching, and my IT Band seized up after the 2007 Great Eastern Run. I went to see Sue, and she soon sorted me out! 2008 saw me achieve PBs @ 7 distances, and with regular "top ups" from Sue, I have had no reoccurence of my problems. I am very happy to recommend Sue."

Alan M. - Peterborough

 

"What marathon problems?

Beyond Expectations ***** 

Everything relating to a marathon build-up didn't seem to be going to plan due to my availability to train (ie work got in the way), so I was still running long distances right up to the marathon. By trying to cram in as much as possible before the event it was inevitable (in hindsight) that something could happen...and it did...my hamstring. It was sore! With only a week to the marathon Sue gave me her professional advice as to how to proceed, administered two treatment sessions and provided me with loads of non-strenuous exercises to do at home. Sue's also a runner so she could undertand my desire to run the marathon the following weekend. With her help the marathon came and went without any problem. Sue's professionalism towards my injury was next to none. Based on this Sue will always get my recommendation...top marks for getting me back so quickly...and thanks!"

"Active Edge - Achilles healer!

Beyond Expectations ***** 

I went to Sue at Active Edge Solutiions as I was suffering with my achilles tendon last summer. A couple of treatments from Sue, combined with expert advise and recommended exercises, have got me back on track and I was able to complete the Great Eastern Run without any reaction from my achilles. I would recommend Sue to anyone seeking remedial massage and fitness advise at competitive rates."

Rod. M. - Peterborough

 

"Sports Massage a must!

Whether you are running for fun, entering a race, a sports massage is a must! Sue is very professional and will work with you to get you where you want to be.
