Introduction to AthleticsSuzi’s parents where both good standard athletes and she used to play on the swings and slides while they were running in the park. She remembers thinking to herself, ‘what do they find so great about running?’, because she couldn’t see what the attraction was. It wasn’t until she was at Junior school that she began to realise. She had a teacher, Mr Sadler, who was a good runner. He organised some races and when she did them she found herself at the front. She loved the competitiveness of it and the feeling when she won. Ever since then it became a habit and she joined the local running club, Riverside Runners. As she enjoyed running on the track and Riverside Runners were more of a road running club she decided to join Alex and Rosemary Stanton’s (coaches to Paula Radcliffe) training group at Bedford and County AC.
