Work at The Body Matters<\/a> is already starting to focus again on the 2015 London Marathon. This will be our 5th great year of being involved with Havens Hospices, helping their Golden Bond runners, those that have committed to run on behalf of Havens, achieve their aim of finishing the London Marathon. For some, the aim is just to \u2018get round and enjoy it\u2019!<\/em><\/p>\n

The Ballot for places was announced in early October and charity runners will be eagerly confirming their places for the start line next\u00a0April.<\/p>\n

At The Body Matters our role in those preparations involves not only caring for sore muscles and joints from the increased training of the runners<\/a> we see, but also advice on training, rest,\u00a0kit and nutrition as well as planning for the day itself and what to do afterwards.<\/p>\n

We are a multidisciplinary team<\/a> and if the person you speak to doesn’t have the answer to your issue, then we can guarantee one of our team will. We work closely together to pool our\u00a0knowledge<\/a> and skills to fit individual requirements and preparation for the start line so the run can be enjoyed as much as possible whatever the goal, be it a personal\u00a0best time or just finishing the course in one piece, be it nursing you through an injury or building confidence if it waivers during training (which is more common than\u00a0you would think.)<\/p>\n

Over the years we have had contact with many runners and enjoyed being part of their journey beyond the day itself. Due to a wealth of actual experience within our ranks, we can offer honest and impartial advice on how to manage your goals for the day whether you are running your first or your 50th marathon.<\/p>\n

If you are planning on running the London Marathon, or indeed know anyone who is running any marathon next year, and you would like some help or advice, then please call The Body Matters on 01702 714 968. Gift vouchers are\u00a0available.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
