Hairstyles of the Elite Runner
The topic of hair and its effect on running performance has for some reason always been of great interest to the male members of the NWH. Haircuts must be planned around races, and ones hairstyle must be easy to manage and still look perfect as one is crossing the finish line of a half marathon. Being by far the most photogenic member of the team it is vital that I take great pride in my appearance, ignoring the non-stop pleas from team mates to ‘go for an extreme style’ / ‘shave it off yourself like i do’ etc. To me it is very important, as the NWH become a global phenomenon and we start to be hounded by paparazzi, that at least one of the team looks presentable at all times. As the attached photos illustrate, it looks like it will always be down to myself to be that person.

ReplyDeleteI would like to congratulate you on your first blog post. I feel like we may be getting a valuable insight into the inner thoughts of the "H" with illuminating insights into your ego such as "Being by far the most photogenic member of the team" and "it is very important...that at least one of the team looks presentable at all times". I suspect this newfound confidence has alot to do with that fancy new hairstyle of yours - which was worth every penny of the £31 spent on it I must say. I look forward to your future posts.
