Vegan Sweet Potato Brownies

Vegan Sweet Potato Brownies

  For some of us, a love of chocolate seems to be there from the moment we’re born. Bibi’s first words about three decades ago weren’t ‘vegan sweet potato brownies’ but they weren’t far off.

Post-Pregnancy Marathon Plans

Post-Pregnancy Marathon Plans

Race entry deadlines force you to make decisions months ahead of your intended races. So, just three months after having Stanley I’m starting to think about post-partum marathon plans.

Returning to Running and Exercise after Pregnancy

Returning to Running and Exercise after Pregnancy

Before starting back running after baby Stanley’s birth, I went to see Rob White at Challenge Physio to get the all clear for starting to train again.
