The Active Inspiration & Motivation Consultancy is the brainchild of Garry Cochrane (pictured); an experienced marathon runner with an extensive background in sales and marketing.
Garry took up running in his mid-thirties to try and combat a largely sedentary life and also as a reaction to health issues within his family; this served as a wake up call to look at his own lifestyle.
Since then he has completed 12 marathons including 3 consecutive marathons in Cornwall as part of the Atlantic Coastal Challenge. Along with a friend, they raised £1,500 for Yorkshire Cancer Research.
The experience of training and running marathons has encouraged him to look at the wider benefits of the commitment to this particular endurance challenge; the enjoyment and fulfilment that comes form successfully completing the task and the benefits it can have for an individual- including work, family and social life.
He is a qualified level 2 England Athletics Endurance Coach, has a degree in public relations and is currently undertaking a part-time Masters degree in Sport & Exercise Psychology at Carnegie in Leeds.
