Profile for - Simon Mcneilly

I currently work as a Freelance Personal Trainer and a Lifestyle Adviser for the South Staffordshire Primary Care Trust (PCT).

I spend the majority of my spare time training myself, I’m a keen runner and enjoy taking part in half and full marathons. I have a passion for all sorts of training and regularly take part in boxing lessons. I also teach studio Spin & Circuit Classes.

I thrive on trying to live as healthy as possible and therefore, one of my main interests is learning the in's and out's of nutrition and how it can impact upon your life.

Each year I like to set myself a challenge, something to aim for. Last year I climbed mount Kilimanjaro for charity. I am currently in training for the 3 Peaks Challenge, Gloucester & Vienna marathon & the Safaricon marathon in kenya. I think my greatest challenge to date was to give up my career as a Virgin Atlantic Cabin Crew Member to begin a career as a personal trainer. But I made it and this proved to me you can achieve whatever you aspire to.
