MEET THE COACHES: CARL ADAMS

Carl spent 30 years on the low road of drugs and alcohol. Some of those times were good, others near death. 

Running free of addiction to drugs and alcohol since August 2018, Carl started chasing down good times through running and soon became a British Athletics coach to help others do the same.  

Starting as only an addict could - with ultra marathons - Carl stepped down in distance to take up marathons in 2020, going under 3hrs in his first five attempts under the guidance of coach Terry Skelton, with a personal best of 2h45m09s set in Verona, Italy in November of 2022, at the age of 47. 

Carl plans to run under 2h40m as he approaches his fifties and beyond with the new life running has given him, while helping as many people as he can reconnect to the "primal and personal voice within that running awakens.”
