I haven't written in a while quite simply because I felt like I had nothing exciting to say! The year so has been a roller coaster ride life wise, and I felt a real 'can't be bothered' attitude where my running was concerned. Everything that I originally wanted to do just got put in the...

Christmas craziness and back to running
Hope you had a nice relaxing Christmas. I popped up to the post with my husband to visit his family and it was chaotic as usual . I'm never used to having lots of people around so 7 adults, 3 kids and 2 babies was pretty full on! My mother in law has just moved... Continue Reading →
Low Carb High Fats and Running
I've been running since 2001, and even before then I exercised. Exercise and diet have always been very important to me. For many years I have eaten healthily and run a lot but yet I have always felt that has never been representative in how I look. I even remember when on a business trip... Continue Reading →

First Marathon after having my baby!
Its been 9.5 months now since my son was born and all I could think of whilst I was pregnant was how I was going to get back into my training and what I wanted to achieve as I missed running. Don't get me wrong I was delighted being pregnant but I'd always run and... Continue Reading →
What are your 2015 running goals?
About this time of year every year I start to reflect on the year that has been and what I'd like to try and achieve in the next 12 months of my running. This year has been an interesting one since I had my little boy part way through the year but it has been... Continue Reading →
It’s ok to change your goals – here are a few tips
Before I gave birth I was all set to pop the baby out and get straight back into training to then run the Marathon Du Medoc 5-6 months later and then the New York Marathon in 2015. But do you know I changed my mind - surprisingly 😉 !! Trying to run a marathon so... Continue Reading →
