Cal started running in 2012 to get fit for his wedding. After he caught the bug, he joined Hyde Village Striders. After being introduced to more and more races and styles of training, he did his LiRF course and coached sessions for the club.

In 2018, he joined Salford Harriers hoping to improve his times, and did. However, he didnt stay there long as he was training on his own with not being able to get to most sessions due to his kids being young. He then joined East Cheshire Harriers in 2019 to join the VivaGlennPiper fun bus. His times continued to improve more and more.

Cal has ran London, Snowdonia, and Manchester Marathons.
