Leeds Abbey Dash 10k – 31 Weeks Pregnant

Leeds Abbey Dash 10k – 31 Weeks Pregnant

“When will you stop running?” was a question I was asked a lot when I was first pregnant, and I didn’t have an answer. I knew I would run as long as I felt comfortable, and safe. So, I didn’t know that the Abbey Dash would be my last pregnant race at the time I…

“It’s going to be super muddy tomorrow – you do have trail shoes, don’t you?” said Mum, the night before our Women’s Running 10K race, a trail race that we’ve have been ambassadors for for about six months. Hmm. Well, yes, I did HAVE them, in the sense that I own trail shoes. Several pairs…

Round Sheffield Run Race Report

Round Sheffield Run Race Report

“I’ve just got the opportunity to go to Glastonbury… would it be okay if I missed the Round Sheffield Run?” asked Mum on the phone, 3 weeks ago. Hm, to make her miss the most iconic festival in the world to run around South Yorkshire with me – it would have seemed churlish, wouldn’t it?…

SimplyHealth Great Run Series

SimplyHealth Great Run Series

We had a major fangirl meltdown recently when we met Brendan Foster, one of big running heroes and founder of the the Great Run Series, which includes the biggest half marathon in the whole wide world. As you can see from the photo, he already had his coat and bag and was ready to leave…

Loch Ness Marathon Race Report 2016

Loch Ness Marathon Race Report 2016

Enjoying every mile of a whole marathon, from the first step to mile 26, sounds like an impossible hope. But that’s genuinely how I felt during Loch Ness Marathon this weekend. The entire thing was a joy, and I was so thrilled run beside my mum over the gorgeous Highland route. Everything in the run…

Edinburgh Half Marathon 2016 Race Report

If you had a panic attack during a race, you’d think that that would be the most important memory of the run, wouldn’t you? But no, in Edinburgh Half Marathon the views along the coast at Portobello, and the crowds along the route, and the pleasing feeling of running alongside mum in our first race…

How Tough is Tough Mudder?

How Tough is Tough Mudder?

Voluntarily receiving 10,000 volt shocks to the head is not everyone’s idea of a good weekend. And the electrocution at the end of Tough Mudder is certainly no laughing matter. My teammates and I had joked earlier in the race that we should have been training by licking batteries at home, but in reality, nothing could…

First Olympic Triathlon – Nailed It!

I completed my first Olympic Distance triathlon – The Cleveland Short Course – last weekend. I had a (mostly) marvellous time and I am so happy I womanned-up and took the plunge.
