Train. Improve. Repeat.
I haven't written for a while as life outside of running for me has been a bit crazy. We've been flying around as a family trying to fit lots of things into our life, and as a result my son got a cold and I was feeling under the weather last week and at the... Continue Reading →
My little running blog is 5 years old today! I had never really thought about writing a blog especially about running and I always wondered what on earth I was going to write about - but here I am 5 years later and still writing 🙂 I originally started writing it for a few reasons...

I've been trying not to broadcast the fact that I haven't been able to run lately due to a couple of minor (or major - depending on how you look at it) health issues. Initially when the doctor said no exercise that takes my HR up over 120 I ignored her and I carried on... Continue Reading →
How's your day going today? I'm having a rest day from training as it's been a tough week and I did a hard sprint session last night. I'm really excited as I as interviewed a while back for an article about top blogs for Weight Watchers magazine, and it's out. The blog is featured on... Continue Reading →

I remember being in Lorna Jane and seeing a vest entitled 'Running Makes me Happy' - I loved it so much I bought one for me and sent one to my running friend who at the time was serving in the Army in Iraq and she like me loved it! Running makes me feel alive... Continue Reading →
I was going through some stuff at home the other day and I came upon a box of medals that I have had from the races I have run. It's funny because it seems to be now that entering a fun run or general race means you get a medal  even if you don't win.... Continue Reading →
So I am running in the Townsville half marathon this coming Sunday and I was fine until my friend told me that only 220 competed in last year's race.....I found myself rushing to Google the race, checking the results and panicking that I might be last! I haven't had a great week training wise. I... Continue Reading →
