Race Report: Dublin Rock and Roll Half Marathon 2018

Race Report: Dublin Rock and Roll Half Marathon 2018

Dublin Rock and Roll Half Marathon Race Report Or, to put it more accurately, ‘How The Pope Ruined My Weekend’. Not that I bear the guy any grudge but all of the arrangements for this race were changed to accommodate his visit to Ireland later in the month, making this very popular half marathon rather unpopular…

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…

Women’s Running 10K Race Report – 6 Months Pregnant

Women’s Running 10K Race Report – 6 Months Pregnant

“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?…

London Marathon 2017 Race Report

London Marathon 2017 Race Report

I like people. And at London Marathon there are a LOT of people to like – 39,000 runners and even more spectators, all of whom I fell mildly in love with on Sunday morning. Green start – I made my way to the Green Start alone, but never felt alone on the journey. I spoke…

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

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…

Harewood House Half Marathon Race Report

Harewood House Half Marathon Race Report

Harewood House Half Marathon was amazing. That’s it. The race report. I genuinely could happily stop there and say no more. However, I suppose that in the interests of writing a blog post that behaves like a blog post, I could explain why. It’s small enough to feel like a social run It’s well-organised – British…

Asics Greater Manchester Marathon Race Report – Half and Half Relay

Asics Greater Manchester Marathon Race Report – Half and Half Relay

Asics Greater Manchester Marathon is one of the few in the UK (the only?) that offers a half and half relay option. We don’t know why other marathons don’t but we were more than happy to run half each in Manchester. Not because we’re lazy but because we have different races lined up so we’re…

Leeds Xpress Triathlon – Review

Leeds Xpress Triathlon – Review

I’ve always avoided triathlon because it all seemed so complicated and technical. Oh, and really rather difficult. Then I saw the fabulous Brownlee brothers whizzing round the Commonwealth Games and thought, ‘That actually looks quite easy!’ When the first thing that I did at Leeds Xpress Triathlon was put my indelible tattoo on upside down,…
