- Fastest Half Marathon NEW WORLD RECORD 01:45:37

The records so far have all been extremely challenging for Jake to train towards and his dedication to ensuring both his mind and body are prepared is an inspiration. From swimming, to cycling to pushing weights in the gym, Jake has made it his priority that he is ready for the hard work which has to come. We have proudly sponsored Jake’s ambition and look forward to any future endeavours he embarks.
The equipment which UKSF supplied to him were an Olympic Barbell, 100kg Pegasus Bumper Plates, Squat Rack, Adjustable Bench, Pull Up bracket, plyometric box and cast iron kettlebells.
