Rhalou is our web sheriff, so if there’s any chaos on the forums or route-mapping issues that need straightening out, she’s your woman.
Rhalou only started running when she joined Wild Bunch Media, but she loves it so much she now runs four times a week. ‘Running has changed my life. It’s a great way to make time for myself as I love getting lost in my thoughts,’ says Rhalou. ‘It also means I get to eat more cake.’
She went from her first 5K to a 28-mile ultra in under a year. When not at work, Rhalou can be found riding her bicycle, listening to disco, eating hummus and running excitedly round the park. Her favourite song is Aint Nobody by Chaka Khan.
Danny Coyle
Magazine Editor
danny.coyle@mensrunninguk.co.ukThe Men's Running mag editor Danny is a keen runner. ‘I try to run three times a week for at least half an hour. If I’ve entered a race it might go up to five to get myself in shape for the time I have in mind,’ says Danny.
He’s done three marathons, a couple of 20-mile races plus a few half-marathons and 10k races. ‘It was my best and my worst feeling when I finished my first marathon. It was London in 2008 and it was an amazing experience to cross that line, but I missed getting a sub-four hour time by 27 seconds, and still haven’t managed to beat it. If anyone has a training plan that counters getting older and slower, e-mail me.’
Danny also plays for Campion Old Boys Rugby Club. ‘I once managed to run into a large, hard, wooden beam during a rugby training session and ended up with 17 stitches in my face followed by a nasty bout of septicaemia. I got bitten by a dog on a training run once as well. He was only a puppy but it took a few goes to shake him off my thigh.’
Christina Neal
Editor-in-Chief
christina.neal@wildbunchmedia.co.ukChris is the Editor-in-Chief, which means it's her job to run the show. ‘I love the variety of my job, covering the topic of running, which I'm passionate about, and working with my highly talented and creative team,’ says Chris.
She runs three to four times a week and also goes to the gym. ‘I run for between 20 to 40 minutes every other day,’ she says. ‘I am not a fast runner, I firmly believe in pacing yourself! In my view, this is the best way to avoid injuries and it also makes the experience of running more enjoyable.’ Her favourite song to run to is Plastic Dreams by Jay Dee. When not at work, Chris can be found drinking wine, stroking her two gorgeous cats, Arnie and Sylvester, and riding her motorbike (though not all at once!).
